Calyx Distinctive Arts, founded in 2001 by a group of professional artists, host art exhibitions and sales twice annually. The Calyx directors, and up to twenty-five guest artists each day, display and sell high quality art from a diverse spectrum of disciplines.

Calyx organizers believe that artists are the best qualified people to exhibit and sell artwork as they have an intimate understanding of artists, their media, and their specific artwork. Calyx’ semi-annual exhibition and sale events offer numerous advantages for both the art-buying public and the artist:

•Art-buyers can meet the artists

•Art-buyers feel good about buying from artists directly, knowing that the artist retains a greater percentage of the purchase price of the artwork

•Minimal overhead enables the artists to keep costs low and therefore prices of artwork affordable

•Artists gain direct feedback about their artwork from the art-buying public

•Artists have the opportunity to educate the public about their artwork, discussing their sources of inspiration, and their methods and techniques

•Artists support each other, working together toward a common goal

Calyx has secured a great exhibition space in a central and convenient downtown Calgary location. We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Debit cards and cash. Please join us for our next event!
