Chinatown Public Art Plan Enters Next Phase

Calgary Arts Development is entering a new phase of the Chinatown Public Art Plan, focusing on deeper engagement with people who have strong ties to the neighbourhood.

We’re inviting community members to apply to take part in interviews and focus group sessions that will help shape the future of public art in Chinatown. Applications are open from June 3 to July 3, 2025. Sessions will be scheduled through July, August and September 2025.

Whether you’re a resident, artist, business owner, student or community leader — we want to hear from you. Learn more and apply here.

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.
