Help make a difference to Alberta’s artists. The Lieutenant Governor of Alberta Arts Awards Foundation celebrates and champions Alberta artists through awards to Emerging and Distinguished Artists across all arts disciplines. Your donation goes directly to supporting awards of $10,000 to Emerging Artists and $30,000 to Distinguished Artists who have made an outstanding contribution to the province’s arts communities. Alberta artists share our stories and create works inspired by our cities, towns and communities, often signalling areas for focus as we navigate a changing society.

“With these awards, you show artists you understand us, you care about us, and you are behind us in our steadfast determination to make a better land for Albertans and indeed, for all Canadians.” One Yellow Rabbit Theatre, Lieutenant Governor of Alberta Distinguished Artist

Celebrate Alberta’s incredible artists – they are so worth our investment.
