Calgary's Arts Plan is the long-term strategy for arts development and investment in Calgary. The goals we set now will become a lasting legacy of Calgary's year as a Cultural Capital of Canada. Now is the time to imagine the future of our city. It is a time for Calgarians to consider the role a vibrant arts sector will play in our city's future.

The City of Calgary and Calgary Arts Development are committed to involving the public in decisions that affect them. That’s why we engaged MASS LBP, a Canadian organization dedicated to reinventing public consultation, to convene a Citizens’ Reference Panel to determine public values and priorities. The Citizens' Reference Panel on Calgary’s Arts Plan is made up of 36 randomly selected Calgarians from across the city. The panelists have volunteered to spend four Saturdays in September and October to learn about Calgary's arts sector and work together to determine the priorities and vision that will guide the creation of Calgary's first Arts Plan.

On October 13, join the conversation by attending the Public Roundtable on Calgary's Arts Plan. The Public Roundtable is a chance for all Calgarians to learn about the Arts Plan process, meet the Citizens' Reference Panel and work together to discuss public priorities.

October 13, 1:00 - 3:00pm 

Calgary Water Centre, 25th Ave. SE & Spiller Road SE
