Public Art Survey & Sessions

The listing period for this Classified has passed.

Take part in shaping the new direction for public art in Calgary.

The City is moving forward with plans to transition the public art program to an external organization, and we’re seeking input from Calgarians to help shape the future of public art in Calgary. Calgarians can participate in an online survey starting today until June 30, 2020.

For those who’d like to go a little more in-depth, our consultants ART+PUBLIC UnLtd are hosting online engagement sessions on June 16, 17, and 18, and 22, 2020.

Insights collected from Calgarians and the arts community will help us find the best external organization to operate Calgary’s future public art program. We expect to release a procurement document in early fall 2020, and a final decision to be made by the end of the year.

You’re Invited

Join us for an online engagement session

We want to hear from you: What makes a successful public art program?

As part of the next chapter in Calgary’s public art program, we are hosting online community engagement sessions and we hope you can join us. Our goal for these sessions is to have conversations on how to create a thriving and successful public art program for Calgarians.

These online sessions will be interactive with focused exercises about the values and priorities for public art in Calgary. These sessions are an opportunity for us to share information about the new direction for public art, the work that’s underway and how your valuable input will help shape the future public art program.

Please pre-register for one of three sessions. Space is limited and registrations will be received on a first-come, first-served basis. Registrants will receive background information to review before we meet and the sign-in process via an Eventbrite reminder email.

Available Sessions:

  • June 22, 2020, from 11:ooam – noon
  • June 22, 2020, from 5:00 – 6:00pm

We will be addressing some of your questions in the session. Send us your questions in advance of the session to sagan.macisaac@artpluspublic.com.
