New Gallery

The New Gallery (TNG) is an artist-run centre located in Calgary, Alberta. This charitable centre for contemporary art was established in 1975 as the Clouds & Water Gallery and Visual Production Society. Today, the Society continues its vision through the operation of two venues – the Main Space, a storefront in Calgary’s Chinatown neighbourhood, and the +15 Window, a shallow vitrine located at the Arts Commons building on a high-traffic pedestrian walkway. These spaces support the research, creation, and exhibition of social and political creative practices from artists at all junctures of their careers, while enabling a public engagement with contemporary art. Our programming comprises a broad range of art and educational activities, including exhibitions, residencies, lectures, and community collaborations that serve to invigorate our audience’s experience of contemporary art and culture.
