Alberta Arts Days

From classrooms to concert halls, from libraries to choir lofts and sidewalks to studios - with 571 events in 116 communities, Albertans everywhere brought the very spirit of our beautiful province to life.

Special thanks to all of the event organizers, volunteers and everyone working behind the scenes to make Arts Days a success and provide Albertans with opportunities to discover, experience and celebrate our unique blend of peoples and passions, and the importance of arts and culture to a healthy and vital Alberta.

Thank you as well to all of the artists and arts organizations for not only sharing their talent and their passion throughout the weekend - but who everyday help us and the world understand the diverse and complex story that is Alberta.

Something for everyone
