On behalf of the staff, Board of Directors and the LOOK2021 Steering Committee, thank you to everyone who helped make LOOK2021 such an enormous success.
Contemporary Calgary’s mission is to provide world-class contemporary art exhibitions and programs for all Calgarians, and your support through LOOK2021 helps us do exactly that.
Together, we raised over $150,000 in net proceeds for the gallery that will help us continue to present exceptional local, national and international contemporary art exhibitions and exciting public programs. If you missed out on the auction, you can still support us by making a donation today at contemporarycalgary.com/donate
To our donors and sponsors, artists and galleries, thank you so much for your kindness and generosity.
