ASA Call for Submissions: Nostalgia - Chasing Yesterday

The Alberta Society of Artists invites all artists in Alberta (must be 18 years of age or older) to submit to the exhibition, Nostalgia – Chasing Yesterday

“Nostalgia is a sentimental longing for the past—its people, places, events, and possibilities. What triggers this yearning? Is it the scent of something familiar, the sound of an old song, or perhaps a weathered photograph? Were the "good old days" truly as perfect as we remember, or do the mists of time cloud our perception? In an ever-evolving world, nostalgia can offer comfort and a sense of belonging, but does it also keep us tethered to what once was? Can revisiting the past help us better understand and shape the future? What does nostalgia feel like to you? Is it an abstract emotion conveyed through shape, color, and texture, or does it manifest as a tangible memory, an image frozen in time? We encourage you to explore nostalgia in its many forms—whether it’s a glimpse of a moment from the past or a deeper emotional reflection on how those moments continue to shape us today.”

 All artists, both emerging and established, working in all media including installation, sculpture, video or photography, fibre, painting, drawing, and mixed media are encouraged to apply. 

Deadline for Submissions: June 30, 2025

ASA Call for Submissions: Finding Joy...

(Calgary, AB) The Alberta Society of Artists invites all artists in Alberta (must be 18 years of age or older) to submit to the exhibition, “Finding Joy in a Dystopian World”. “A dystopian world is one that often feels devoid of reason, a reflection of some of the struggles we face today. 

In such a world, how do we navigate without losing our sense of hope? Can we discover joy through the power of ideas, knowledge, and creativity? Is it possible to imagine a future where compassion, equality, and the resilient human spirit triumph over despair? We invite you to explore and express your vision: what brings you joy, inner peace, and hope in the face of adversity? How do you find light in the darkness? What can we learn from dystopia, and how can we shape a more hopeful future through art?” 

“This will be our reply to violence: to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before.” – Leonard Bernstein, on the occasion of the death of President John F. Kennedy.” All artists, both emerging and established, working in all media including installation, sculpture, video or photography, fibre, painting, drawing, and mixed media are encouraged to apply.
