Downtown Calgary Fun New Public Art Gallery

A new public art gallery called "art house" has opened in downtown Calgary, occupying a temporary exhibition space previously used by the Glenbow Museum in the Edison office building. The gallery is a collaboration between Aspen Properties and the Alberta Arts Foundation (AFA), featuring the foundation's extensive collection of 9,600 artworks by over 1,700 Alberta artists. It opened on September 10 and is currently open Tuesday to Friday from 12 to 4 pm. The space was originally created as a museum-grade gallery during the Glenbow's renovation, and after the Glenbow vacated to prepare for its reopening as the JR Shaw Centre for Arts & Culture in late 2026, the Alberta Foundation for the Arts stepped in to keep the gallery active.
