Art galleries in Calgary

Calgary, AB has 18 art galleries on the map. That's 18 galleries mapped around Calgary. The exhibition schedule matters more than the count: a small gallery with a great current show beats a big one between exhibitions. Many are free to enter, so the only cost of a gallery afternoon is your time.

This guide covers every art gallery we could verify in and around Calgary (within about 40 km), built from OpenStreetMap's community-maintained data. Names you'll run into include BABA'S ART Haus and Collectors' Gallery of Art, plus Dade Loft. If a gallery's missing from Calgary's list, it probably just hasn't been mapped yet.

Gallery tips for Calgary

How the regulars do Calgary's galleries:

Good to know

We searched about 40 km around Calgary — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new art gallery in Calgary can take a while to appear. Spotted a closure among the 18, or a art gallery we missed entirely? The map is the source of truth here — one OpenStreetMap edit corrects it for everyone.

We don't review exhibitions — shows change too fast. What we list is the where: real galleries, verified by real mappers.

If you run one of the 18 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.

Art gallery listings for Calgary: 18 mapped from OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL). Photos from Wikimedia Commons contributors; individual photo credits appear in captions. Listing data was last refreshed automatically — verify hours before visiting.
