Calgary

A collective of Calgary and area artists who share their love of art through membership, workshops and exhibitions.

Become a Member

Membership has two parts. First join the national Federation of Canadian Artists, then affiliate with the Calgary Chapter. These are two separate memberships: national dues support the FCA, and chapter fees support your local chapter.

Step 1

Join the Federation of Canadian Artists

Supporting Membership$65 / year

Supporting membership is open to everyone and is where every member starts. You receive Art Avenue magazine and regular news, but are not yet eligible to enter juried shows.

Step 2

Exhibiting $95 / year

Unlocks entry to juried exhibitions. Once you are a Supporting member you apply with a portfolio of your work, which is juried by the FCA. A $15 application fee applies, and on acceptance you pay the $30 difference to upgrade.

AFCA & SFCA Elected

Associate (AFCA) and Signature (SFCA) are elected status levels. Exhibiting members earn them by being accepted into juried exhibitions over time, then passing a peer jury. They are awarded, not purchased.
