This remarkable initiative, entitled “What does Alberta mean to you?”, encourages artists to craft a 4”x4” piece using any medium that resonates with their personal connection to Alberta.
Participation Guidelines: All are cordially invited to submit their 4”x4” artworks, no previous art experience necessary and all ages welcome, which will become part of a vibrant community art installation at Canopy Art Studios. Artwork may be dispatched via mail or delivered in person to Canopy Studios, located at 1723 9th Street SW, Calgary, Alberta. T2T 3C1, with attention to Kim Webb.

Each 4”x4” tile will be made available for sale via donation, with all proceeds dedicated to funding refugee support efforts in Alberta.
Unleash your Creative Spirit: The creative prompt for this engaging project is simple yet profound: “What does Alberta mean to you?” Alberta holds different meanings for different individuals, shaped by their experiences and the time they have spent within the province. This project encourages artists to share their unique perspectives through art, becoming part of a collective art installation.
