Please see the attached call for artists and information from The Confluence Historic Site & Parkland:

I’m sharing a new Call for Artists from The Confluence Historic Site & Parkland for our Phase 2 Exhibition Redevelopment.
The Confluence is seeking an Indigenous artist or creative team from Treaty 7 Territory to create an immersive overhead artistic installation inspired by the Northern Lights. The installation will be positioned between the new Tsuut’ina Nation and Stoney Nakoda First Nations exhibits and will create a shared visual experience connecting the two gallery spaces.
The project budget is approximately $5,000 CAD (exclusive of GST), and artists working in traditional, contemporary, or interdisciplinary practices are encouraged to apply.
Key Dates:
  • Questions Deadline: August 31, 2026
  • Submission Deadline: September 10, 2026 at 4:00 PM MST
  • Artist Selection: September 25, 2026
  • Project Start: October 5, 2026
  • Installation: March 2027
The full Call for Artists is attached with additional information about the project, eligibility, submission requirements, and timeline.
Please feel free to share this opportunity with Indigenous artists, creative teams, and others within your networks who may be interested.
