Become a champion for local art and culture

Alberta Arts Days is your opportunity to send the message that you are a socially conscious organization that is invested in the growth and sustainability of Alberta’s communities.

That you understand the value of the arts to society and the important contributions our artists and cultural organizations make to our communities.

That you believe in access to culture for all – and that participation in cultural activities is critical in maintaining a healthy and vibrant Alberta.

Consider lending your support to some of the many community-led events held throughout the province each year. Perhaps you have space to offer up to a local arts group to use as a venue for their event? Or perhaps you are able to provide in-kind donations that will help bolster the events taking place in the communities you serve? You may even wish to host your own Arts Days event for your employees and local community residents. The ways to participate are as endless as the creativity and imagination being celebrated.

Send us an email (albertaartsdays@gov.ab.ca) and let us know if your organization would like to become involved.
