Calgarians want a dynamic and thriving arts scene.
This is what Creative Calgary fights for.

Our
Story
Get to Know Us
Creative Calgary started in 2017 ahead of the municipal election, where our collective advocated for increased municipal investment in the local arts sector and launched a campaign to raise awareness about the economic contributions, and intrinsic value, artists and arts organizations bring to the City of Calgary. Our overall efforts resulted in Calgary Arts Development’s (CADA) funding increasing from $6.4M to $12.4M in 2019 and up to $15.5M by 2022.
