The Program
The Northeast Mini Galleries Public Art Program includes 13 mini galleries, including 10 located at different community associations, and three located downtown inside the Calgary Municipal Building’s atrium. The mini galleries feature 39 artists throughout the year — each exhibition showcases 13 local artists, selected by a local curator, for a four-month period.
The Northeast Mini Galleries program started in 2023 as part of the City of Calgary’s Northeast Public Art Initiative which brings several public art projects to Calgary’s northeast communities, supports local artists, enhances northeast neighbourhoods and reflects the people who live in the communities where the art will be located.
This initiative aims to build amazing spaces for people to come together and provides opportunities for local artists to showcase their talent while celebrating the diversity of artforms, people and cultures represented in northeast Calgary.
