About

The Calgary Public Art Guide is an interactive digital guide that showcases a wide range of public artworks across the city. From large-scale murals and permanent sculptures to temporary installations and community-led projects, the map highlights the diverse forms of public art that shape Calgary’s streets, parks and gathering spaces.

Featuring city-owned pieces from Calgary’s Public Art Collection, publicly funded and privately commissioned works, and grassroots community initiatives, the map includes images, artist bios, and multimedia content to deepen the viewer’s experience. It offers a dynamic platform for Calgarians and visitors to explore, learn about and engage with public art in all its forms.

Developed by Calgary Arts Development, this tool is designed to increase access to public art, support local artists, and reflect the creativity and cultural richness of Calgary’s many communities. Users can browse by location, type of artwork, or theme — and even contribute their own discoveries or create custom self-guided tours. Representing artworks across all city wards, the map brings Calgary’s vibrant public art landscape to life.
