This year's upcoming events include...
Call to Artists: 2026 Discovery Gallery Exhibition Proposals
Applications accepted until: Monday, September 1, 2025 at 11:59 pm MT
Alberta Craft is calling for exhibition proposals for the 2026 line-up at the Alberta Craft Discovery Gallery in Edmonton.
Phase-one Digital Application Deadline: Tuesday, July 8, 11:59 PM, MST
The Gallery Shop retail spaces in both Edmonton and Calgary generate sales for artists, provide valuable career mentorship, product feedback, learning opportunities for the public, and revenue for the Alberta Craft Council to deliver additional programming.
Who is this call for? We encourage all levels from emerging to established artists working in craft specific media to apply if they are looking for a retail venue to develop their career. Applicants must be Alberta-based artists.
Open to artists working in all visual arts mediums, this program is faculty-led while providing space, time, and support towards the development of an agreed-upon studio project.
As well as having the opportunity to research, experiment, and create, participants are part of a community of emerging artists committed to developing and expanding their practice. They will participate in faculty-led conversations around the contexts that artists establish for the production and presentation of their work.
Those mountains of shadows and valleys of light is an exhibition featuring works by Anna Binta Diallo, on view at Mitchell Art Gallery from May 27 - August 8, 2025.
Exhibition Opening Reception: June 20, 7–9 PM
Chambers’ Ring explores the history, spectacle, and materiality of boxing. Through the lens of media archaeology and process art, the work analyzes the rhythmic active body, how its perception is influenced via the mediation of technology, as well as the rules and formalized structures of game.
This exhibition has been supported by:
Alberta Foundation for the Arts, Calgary Arts Development, The City of Calgary, EMMEDIA, TRUCK Contemporary Art, Calgary Boxing Club, Rogelio Boxing, Carvel Creative

This show is a departure in every sense of the word from what you may have come to expect from Mary-Leigh. With it she takes herself and the viewer on a quest. As her paintings took shape she seized the opportunity to realize a lifelong dream and has written a story around them. She has created her first children’s book… for adults. Annette’s beautiful calligraphy completed the project and now they look forward to the possibility of a second book already in the works.
