General

Many individuals are involved in the arts in and around Red Deer. We used the Red Deer Community Services Directory (published by the Volunteer & Information Centre and available for sale at the City of Red Deer City Hall) to find the names of the contacts for a variety of organizations.

You may wish to go directly to www.mycommunityinformation.com (an on-line searchable directory of community organizations). For further information about Red Deer contacts, you could also call the Community Information & Referral Society at (403) 346-4636.

Another approach would be to contact the Recreation and/or Culture Department in a community near you. Ask for an arts or culture or recreation programmer.
 
 

Lacombe (403) 782-6666  Ponoka (403) 783?4431
Red Deer (403) 309-8536 Stettler (403) 742-4411
Sylvan Lake (403) 887-2141

In Red Deer, you might also try the Red Deer & District Allied Arts Council (309-3083).

You may also want to contact the Extension Services or Continuing Education Department at the nearest college or university to ask for suggestions for instructors.
