Why AUArts?


Alberta University of the Arts (AUArts) is situated on the ancestral land of the Siksikaitsitapi - Blackfoot (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani) and the shared territories of the Tsuut'ina - North Dene Sarcee, Iyarhe Nakoda-Stoney (Bearspaw, Chiniki, Good Stoney) and homeland of the Métis Nation of Alberta Region III.

The City of Calgary has long been called Moh'kins'tsis by the Siksika, Guts'ists'i by the Tsuut'ina, and Wîchîspa by the Nakoda.

AUArts is a community of thinkers, shapers, makers, and risk takers.

We are students, faculty, staff, and alumni rich in diversity of culture and thought, challenged to fearlessly explore what moves us, drives us, and implores us to see the world differently.


Alberta University of the Arts offers its 1,100 students studio-based programming that leads to a Bachelor of Fine Arts, a Bachelor of Design, and an MFA in Craft Media.

It has deep roots in Calgary's creative community and will soon be celebrating its centennial.
