Call for Applications: Belmont Fieldhouse & Library
Calgary Arts Development invites local, national and international mid-career public artists and artist collectives to apply for the opportunity to create new public artworks at the Belmont Fieldhouse and Library, which is currently under construction. This multi-use facility will be part of a community hub that will include a future multi-amenity recreation facility, if future funding allows.
This public art opportunity consists of four artwork panels at four positions along the south side of the building. Each panel measures 12.8 metres (42 feet) by 4.57 metres (15 feet) and will be attached to the building’s south-facing exterior.
We will select one artist/artist collective for this opportunity. A selection committee will shortlist four applicants and invite them for interviews. Shortlisted candidates will be required to provide two professional references before the final selection.
The selected artist will develop and refine an original artwork, with the support of both Calgary Arts Development and City of Calgary project teams. This process is expected to take place throughout 2026, with final installation scheduled for summer 2027. Selected artists must be able to meet the expectations of the proposed production schedule.
Applications must be submitted by June 24, 2026 at 1 pm MT.
