New Program! Cultural Leadership: Reflecting Forward with Wise Practices

What does it mean to lead well in today's arts and culture sector? How do you know you're making the right decision for yourself, your organization, and your community? What does it look like to be strategic and thoughtful while managing risk in a rapidly evolving sector?

Leadership in the arts and culture sector is complex, dynamic, and deeply connected to community. This program invites emerging and experienced leaders to explore leadership through the lens of Indigenous wise practices, right relations, deep listening, self-inquiry, and leadership as a means, not a destination.

The Works Art & Design Festival 2026 Call to Enter

The Works International Visual Arts Society produces art and education initiatives that engage diverse communities, disrupt the everyday, and facilitate connection and wonder. The Works is now calling for proposals for exhibits and installations, to animate Sir Winston Churchill Square and other public spaces in Edmonton, June 19 to July 1, 2026.  

Applicants are encouraged to apply with projects that consider location, environment, proximity, and influence, while considering the following guiding questions:  

Open Call for "In the Meantime"

The Alberta Society of Artists invites all artists in Alberta (must be 18 years of age or older) to submit to the exhibition, “In the Meantime”. “This theme invites artists to explore the spaces in between—between moments, between decisions, between versions of ourselves. It is a meditation on pause, transition, and stillness—on the subtle rhythms that shape our lives when nothing dramatic seems to be happening. We are interested in work that engages with the liminal, the preparatory, or the unresolved.

InFocus Photo Exhibition: Call for Submissions

InFocus Photo Exhibit proudly presents its 12th annual exhibition and awards program.

We invite photographers from around the world to submit to InFocus Photo Exhibit & Awards 2026 with the theme “The Space Between” — a celebration of ambiguity, transition, and the unseen threads that shape our world and tie us together. We are looking for photos that challenge, question, and illuminate the liminal: the emotional gaps, the silent pauses, the overlooked details, and the beauty that exists in uncertainty and temporality. This is an open theme, open and expansive, leaning towards those things that can’t be explained, only felt. We are looking for visual poetry.

All photographic styles, genres, and approaches are welcome.
All skill levels are welcome.
Deadline: Thursday, October 30, 2025
