Calgary Arts Development aims to position the arts as a leading contributor to the future success of Calgary through a variety of initiatives that promote the arts to citizens and tourists and support Calgary Arts Development’s other programs through communications, public relations and enrolling community, business and government champions.
broadening and deepening participation in and awareness of Calgary’s arts scene is an important focus of much of our work, and over the last year we’ve made significant strides forward. with new tools like
CalgaryCulture.com – a central website for the arts in Calgary - and a growing body of work with partners like the Cultural district and local tourism authorities, we are able to tell more stories about the tremendous achievements of our city’s arts sector.
through this work to raise awareness about Calgary’s vibrant arts scene, more Calgarians are aware of the arts activity happening in their own backyard and deciding to join in, more visitors are adding arts, culture and festival activities to their travel itineraries, businesses and government partners are attracted to the vibrancy and innovation they see in the arts sector and Calgary’s reputation as a vibrant urban cultural centre grows, helping to cement our city’s draw as a great place to live and work for artists and all citizens.

CalgaryCulture.com – a new one-stop shop for centralized information on arts and culture events in Calgary. the goal of the site is to make it easier for citizens, tourists and partner organizations to access comprehensive information about Calgary’s arts scene. it also serves as a free promotional channel for hundreds of artists and arts organizations who benefit from having their events listed on the site and publicized through newsletters, press releases, social media sites and special offers.
we’re encouraging everyone to visit CalgaryCulture. com and to spread the word about this new online resource for the arts in Calgary. visitors to the site can find content like our Summer festival guide, browse special offers and our events calendar, sign up for the weekly newsletter, listen to podcasts about the arts scene, take advantage of the liveRush student ticket program, view videos of local festivals and events and join in the conversation via popular social networking tools like twitter and facebook.
