Bring Public Art into Your Classroom

Our public art team has programming available for teachers who are looking for unique ways to connect art with the education curriculum. Our free classroom presentations introduce students in Grades 3 to 12 to the power of public art and its role in shaping community, culture and conversation in Calgary.

Each session is tailored to your classroom’s needs and can include hands-on activities that bring key ideas to life through art. Whether you’re teaching social studies, science or art, public art can help spark creativity and meaningful discussion.

Our Commitment to Equity

Our commitment to Indigenous reconciliation, racial equity, disability justice, and gender and sexual diversity.

We acknowledge that the land we gather on, Mohkinsstsis, is the ancestral territory of the Siksikaitsitapi — the Blackfoot people — comprising the Siksika, Kainai and Piikani Nations, as well as Treaty 7 signatories, the Tsuut’ina Nation and the Îyârhe Nakoda Bearspaw, Chiniki and Goodstoney First Nations. Today this land is home to the Otipemisiwak Métis Government Districts 5 and 6 as well as many First Nations and Inuit from across Turtle Island.

We acknowledge that there has been art, music, dance, storytelling and ceremony on this land since time immemorial and it is in the spirit of this land and its people that we do our work.

Please see our full Commitment to Equity, including the sections on our aspirations, accountability, current initiatives and EDIA history.
