As the city’s designated arts development authority, Calgary Arts Development supports and strengthens the arts to benefit all Calgarians.
Calgary Arts Development invests and allocates municipal funding for the arts as provided by The City of Calgary. It then leverages these funds to provide additional resources.
Through its granting and arts development programs, Calgary Arts Development supports hundreds of arts and culture organizations, individual artists, artist collectives, and ad hoc arts groups in Calgary.
Calgary Arts Development strives to increase and use its resources wisely, foster collaborative relationships, promote diversity and integrate arts into the lives of Calgarians. Calgary Arts Development recently received a transformational increase in arts funding to support Calgary in becoming a more innovative city promoting an exceptional quality of life, a diversified economy, and shared prosperity.
