Extra! Extra! Read all about it…Our Official Call for work!

PAPERGIRL CALGARY is calling you!

Art should be accessible to everyone!  Taking art out of the gallery and into the streets via old-school bicycle delivery format - this is Papergirl.

What happens in a Papergirl project?

• A call for art submissions goes out to Calgary’s art community, across Canada, and the world!
• The artwork is exhibited* (Papergirl is proudly partnered with EPCOR CENTRE for the Performing Arts)
• At the end of the exhibit all submitted works are rolled up and delivered at random by Papergirls ‘n boys to the unsuspecting local Calgary community. It’s a massive ‘giftervention’!

The Results of Papergirl? Artists of all styles, genres and experience, exhibit their work together AND share it with a new ‘collector’. Papergirls ‘n boys get some great exercise and plenty of smiles whilst gifting art. Volunteers get to know their community a bit better, AND hundreds of Calgarians make and receive fabulous works of art!

THAT’S PAPERGIRL! THE ART OF GIVING ART!

Deadline for submitting work: AUGUST 2

Exhibition Dates:August 14-17

Exhibition Opening Celebration: August 14

Distribution ‘Giftervention’ Day: August 18
