Become a LOOK25 Volunteer
Contemporary Calgary
Deadline to apply: Sunday April 27, 2025, 12 midnight
Join our team in delivering Calgary’s most anticipated celebration of contemporary art, bringing the community together to support Contemporary Calgary’s ongoing work.
This notorious art gala and auction will celebrate creativity and expression with the theme Noir Nouveau, inspired by the work of renowned local artist Simone Elizabeth Saunders. Infused with the intricate beauty of Art Nouveau and Simone’s powerful themes of strength, joy, and resilience, the evening promises an unforgettable experience. For one special night, Simone moves from creator to curator, leaving her mark on the VIP Dinner, sponsored by Holt Renfrew. Her influence will flow through the décor, performances, and atmosphere of the entire evening.
As a LOOK25 volunteer, you’ll gain invaluable hands-on experience at a major arts event that draws local and international artists, curators, gallerists, collectors and more!
Contemporary Calgary will provide all necessary training and support to ensure an excellent volunteer experience. All volunteers will receive access to the LOOK afterparty, a one-year Contemporary Calgary membership and other exciting perks!
