Free First Thursday
June 4
5-9 PM
Join us for Free First Thursday on June 4 at Contemporary Calgary! Enjoy complimentary admission from 5–9 PM as we celebrate the opening of three solo exhibitions, Ghazaleh Avarzamani: Churn, Earn, Burn and then Return, Adelita Husni Bey: Agency and Haig Aivazian: You May Own the Lanterns, but We Have the Light.
Together, these exhibitions examine how systems of power are (re)produced, maintained, enacted, and resisted, whether through surveillance, collective political rehearsal, or the invisible social structures that colour and contour everyday life.
Throughout the evening, you are invited to explore our galleries, join guided exhibition tours in the Flanagan Family Gallery, and participate in drop-in art-making sessions. To complete the night, treat yourself to fresh popcorn alongside a thoughtful selection of wine, craft beer, and non-alcoholic beverages.
Art for All – FREE with registration.
