About this Event
Where Art Meets Activism!
Hi Calgary Youth,
Join The Artivism Project for an afternoon of art with a purpose. You'll create two artistic postcards inspired by the change you want to see in your community: one responding to an issue facing Calgary youth that you feel is being neglected, which we'll deliver directly to local decision makers, and one on anything you like, yours to take home.
Whether you're an artist, an activist or just curious, this space is about using art to make a difference. Come meet passionate youth like yourself, explore bold ideas, and see how creativity can fuel change.
What You Get
- Postcard-making with all supplies provided
- Free pizza and snacks
- The chance to win a $20 gift card
- A certificate from a national organization
- The opportunity to have your voice on youth issues reach Calgary decision makers, literally
Who This is For
Youth aged 12–18. You don't need to call yourself an artist or an activist to join. If you care about your community, your story, and your future, this space is for you.
Cost: Free, always.
