Get matched →In collaboration with Alberta Printmakers (A/P), the High Performance Rodeo invites local Calgary-based artists to create limited-edition screen-printed posters celebrating the festival's 41-year history. Up to 10 artists will be selected to participate.
Each artist will develop a thematically cohesive limited-edition screen-printed poster celebrating the High Performance Rodeo's history, focusing on HPRodeo shows, past artists, One Yellow Rabbit ensemble members, or combinations thereof.
Applicants must be local artists based in Calgary/Mohkinstsis with some familiarity with screen printing and availability to develop and complete the poster edition during the project timeline.
Applications will be reviewed by High Performance Rodeo staff, A/P staff, and members of the visual and performing arts community based on feasibility to execute the project, potential for artistic development, interest in and creative approach to celebrating HPRodeo history, and examples of previous work. The selection process will also consider diversity of peoples, voices, identities, perspectives, professional arts training and career trajectories, and artistic practices.
Every listing links to the organizer's official page. Always confirm deadlines, fees, and entry rules there before you apply.
Final posters will be exhibited in the Laycraft Lounge (or other prominent location) during the 3-week poster show activation in January 2027. One impression of each poster will be included in the exhibition; one will be retained for archives; each participating artist receives one full portfolio set. Remaining impressions will be used for fundraising.
