Free First Thursday
April 2
5-9 PM
Join us for Free First Thursday on April 2 at Contemporary Calgary! Enjoy complimentary admission from 5–9 PM and be among the first to experience the LOOK26 Art Auction exhibition, supported by HEATHER EDWARDS. This exceptional showcase features works generously donated by some of the nation’s most celebrated artists, many of whom will be in attendance. On view from April 3–May 1, the exhibition offers an exciting opportunity to preview and place advance bids ahead of the LOOK26 Gala: Off The Path, presented by MAWER, on May 2.
Watch. Create. Perform. Join us in the Heather Edwards Theatre for an evening of shadow-inspired cinema, fueled by the themes of Off the Path and the artistry of DaveandJenn. Throughout the night, we will host a rotating series of film screenings that explore the delicate magic created when movement meets silhouette.
Once inspired, head to our hands-on art-making station to design and build a shadow puppet of your own. We’ll have overhead projectors set up for you to experiment with light and perform your own miniature shadow plays in real-time. Whether you stay for a few minutes or the entire evening, come explore, create, and bring your own shadow stories to life.
Throughout the night, enjoy a curated set by DJ Dan Solo, along with a thoughtful selection of wine, craft beer, and non-alcoholic beverages.
Art for All – FREE with registration.
