Call for 2D & 3D Artists — Alphabet Mafia
Calgary Pride
Deadline to apply: February 20, 2026
Alphabet Mafia, a dazzling celebration of 2SLGBTQIA+ art, dance and culture, returns for its second year, and we’re looking to feature some of our talented local 2SLGBTQIA+ artists!
This year we are honouring queer resilience through our featured art exhibition Growing Through the Cracks, uplifting and centring the diverse array of voices that make up our 2SLGBTQIA+ community.
Each artist will submit a collection of 3 – 5 pieces to be exhibited. All works must be original and completed within the last five years. A panel of jurors will select artwork based on creativity, quality of execution, and how well it fits the exhibition theme. Selected artists will receive a standard honorarium payment and must be available for the April 9, 2026 launch.
For more information and to apply, visit calgarypride.ca/alphabet-mafia! The deadline for submissions is February 20, 2026 so don’t hesitate to apply!
