Calgary Chapter
Welcome to the Federation of Canadian Artists Calgary Chapter (FCA Calgary). We are a collective of professional and semi-professional Calgary and area artists who meet regularly to share our love of art and art-making. We offer everyone the opportunity to learn and enhance their visual communication skills in workshops and demonstrations. We also regularly host juried exhibitions of members work to be enjoyed and purchased by the public at large.
Learn more about our parent organization, the Federation of Canadian Artists.
The FCA Calgary Chapter hosts several exhibitions each year where Active Members can present and sell their original artwork to the general public. All artwork presented at the show is selected by a jury of FCA members, ensuring a consistent and high quality of workmanship.
