The Red Deer Arts Council is bringing back the historical Red Deer ArtWalk! On August 29th come on down to the Buffalo Hotel site to see what your local artists, crafters and artisans have been up to, and maybe even pick up a few things you can't live without. Come make some connections and get to know your creative community this summer at the ArtWalk. We hope to see you there so we can celebrate how creative Red Deer is together!

Red Deer Arts Council is pleased to announce that the vibrant Artwalk summer festival is returning to downtown Red Deer for the first time in over a decade.  

On Saturday, Aug. 29, colourful market booths featuring locally created paintings, ceramics, textile arts and jewelry will line the site of the former Buffalo hotel at the corner of Ross Street and 51st Avenue.  

The 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. event will highlight original works by 26 Red Deer-area vendors, with musical entertainment provided by local musicians.   

The original Artwalk festival was started to allow artists and artisans to promote and sell products of their creativity. It ran for more than 26 years before ending in 2015. 

The remaining funds of over $25,000 from the festival were used to found the Red Deer Art Walk Developing Artist Award in 2018 which the council continues to award each year.  

This summer, the annual festival is being revived by the Red Deer Arts Council to help inspire community connection and cultural appreciation. Red Deerians will be brought together in the downtown through this celebration of local creativity, live music, and family friendly activities.  

Join us in celebrating and supporting Red Deer’s vibrant art community with the return of our historic Artwalk summer festival.  

In case of rain, the alternative date for Artwalk is Sept. 19.

Collage is generally thought to have emerged as a prominent art form in the mid 20^th century. However, for this month’s class, we’ll do a little digging to trace some of the earlier artistic techniques, such as those of 10^th century Japan, which laid the groundwork for collage. We’ll also take a look at how artists in the Dada movement, such as Hannah Hoch, used collage as social commentary during WW2. Finally, the lecture portion of this class will engage with contemporary collage artists’ work and see how the medium has evolved in the digital era.

Registration covers both classes. All supplies included.

Xplore Sport 365 – Try It Free Sport Days

Central Sport hosts Xplore Sport 365, a “Try It Free” community sport experience held twice a year at one of the City of Red Deer recreation facilities—typically at the end of March for the winter edition and again at the beginning of September for the summer/fall edition.

This free, drop-in event is designed to make sport more accessible by inviting community members of all ages and abilities to explore new activities in a welcoming, no-pressure environment. Whether someone is completely new to sport, looking to try something different, or hoping to reconnect with physical activity, Xplore Sport 365 offers a unique opportunity to discover what’s available right here in Central Alberta.

Local sport organizations from across the region come together to showcase their programs by hosting interactive try-it stations throughout the facility. Participants can take part in short introductory sessions, learn basic skills, ask questions directly to coaches and club representatives, and get a feel for a wide range of sports—all in one place, on the same day.

Sports featured at Xplore Sport 365 vary each event and may include both traditional and emerging activities, giving participants the chance to explore options they may not normally encounter. The goal is to spark curiosity, build confidence, and encourage long-term participation in community sport.

Xplore Sport 365 also serves as an important connection point between families and local sport organizations, helping reduce barriers such as cost, access, and awareness. No registration, equipment, or experience is required—community members are simply encouraged to show up, try something new, and have fun.

By bringing together sport organizations, volunteers, and community members, Xplore Sport 365 continues to strengthen the local sport system and support Central Sport’s mission of building active, connected, and engaged communities across the region.

You have walked past them. The bronze figures scattered through downtown are the Ghosts of Red Deer, one of the largest collections of life-size bronze sculpture in Canada. We willing to be most people who live here could not name a single one.

There is a hockey face-off, a firefighter, a railway worker arguing with a small dog over a pile of money, and a pig who became a local legend. Each Ghost stands for a person, a piece of folklore, or a way of life that shaped our city, created by local and provincial artists and commissioned through the Downtown Business Association.

You can find the Ghosts on your own any day of the week. What you get on this walk is the part that is not on the plaque: who these people actually were, why they earned a statue, and what was happening in Red Deer at the time.

Two hours, entirely on downtown sidewalks, at a pace that leaves room for questions and photos. The tour meets at the MAG front entry at 1PM and heads out shortly after. Dress for the weather and wear good walking shoes.

This tour is free to attend throughout the month of September as part of our celebration of Alberta Culture Days.

The Flyathlon is a multi-sport event that integrates three activities: trail running, fishing, and craft beer. While many enjoy these activities independently, we have found over the years that putting them together is even more enjoyable. The overwhelming majority of funds raised by our Flyathletes through this event will be used for freshwater ecosystems. The Flyathlon is designed to be largely inclusive rather than truly competitive. The Flyathlon seeks to break down barriers through accessible events that create positive and fishy outdoor experiences and memories. It is our hope that through this type of exposure, we can create new outdoor advocates. The Flyathlon is designed specifically to promote responsible fishing practices and trail habits.

Join us on September 12th, 2026, for our first annual Flyathlon, a unique multi-sport event combining trail running, fishing and craft beer in Red Deer, Alberta. The race will start at Canada 150 place. Finishers and spectators will finish at the Troubled Monk, a local full craft beverage company. Total route distance is 5km.

Flyathletes will run with their rods and gear along the trail and decide when to stop to cast and hopefully catch a fish! Be sure to record species and estimated size for a chance to win prizes! Once you have successfully caught and released your fish and completed the route, you will finish the race with a nice, cold beverage.

Never fished before? No worries! Helpful "fish whisperers" volunteers will be available along the route to help you out. The race will begin at 1 pm MT. Registration is $100, and Flyathletes are required to fundraise a minimum of $250. Prizes will be provided to the top fundraisers. Other fun prizes to be given out to top course finishers, smallest fish caught, largest fish caught and more. But wait, there's more!

Flyathletes are provided a race tee, one drink ticket, food and a $50 tax receipt for signing up!

In summary:

Date: September 12th 2026

Location: Red Deer, AB. Canada 150 Place/Troubled Monk

Race distance: 5km

Start time: 1 pm MT

Registration fee: $100

Two activities you can do at your own pace, whenever you land on them: decide what you would pack in your trunk if you were moving here with everything you own, and add your own answer to what makes Red Deer remarkable in the Newcomers’ corner.

Drop in when it works for you. Nothing to sign up for and no need to do it all, or in any particular in order.

Her Inspired Journey ~ Women’s Wellness Weekend 2026

Her Inspired Journey ~ Women’s Wellness Weekend returns to Red Deer for its fourth year on September 19 & 20, 2026, bringing women together for two days of connection, inspiration, wellness and personal growth.

Created and hosted by Central Alberta co-founders Anita Adrain and Cheryl Viczko, the weekend features 13 speakers, four interactive workshops, wellness experiences, vendors, catered lunches and refreshments, and opportunities for women to connect through meaningful conversation and community.

The weekend is centered around four areas of life — Home, Heart, Health and HarMONEy — creating opportunities for women to explore what may be next in their lives.

The 2026 event also includes a special Saturday evening performance featuring Zandra Bell as Shirley Best.

Her Inspired Journey welcomes women from Red Deer, Central Alberta and beyond, whether attending on their own or sharing the weekend with friends.

Dress for Success Central Alberta returns as the event’s Charity of Choice, extending the weekend’s focus on supporting and empowering women within the local community.

Step 'n Stride, our annual walk for Parkinson's, is heading to Capstone Park on September 19th. Join us to help raise much-needed funds and bring awareness for Parkinson Disease and Atypical Parkinsonism, which affects more than 1 in 500 people across Canada, and over 15,000 Albertans. 

Step 'n Stride is for everybody! Walk with us and choose between our 1 or 3km options. We'll bring out the BBQ and all the fun-filled, inclusive, family-friendly weekend activities! Share support, laughter, fresh air, great food, and entertainment while being a part of the Parkinson's community.

Guided walking tours of downtown Red Deer. Historic homes, original businesses, public art, and the stories behind the spots you pass by regularly.

Most art tours are led by someone explaining what the artist was thinking. On this one, you can just ask an artist.

One of the artists who painted murals downtown leads this walk past more than fifty of them, with the oldest going back to the 1980s. Once you start looking, you notice the walls were chosen on purpose. Eye on the Ball is on the eye care centre. I Love My Hairdo is on a hairstyling college. Day & Night is on Day’s Music.

You will hear how a wall gets chosen, how a design goes from sketch to full building, what it is actually like to paint outdoors in Alberta, and what the story is behind the murals being viewed.

You can find these murals on your own with a map. What you get here is the part no plaque tells you: why that wall, why that image, and what you might not know about the artists.

Two hours, entirely on downtown sidewalks, at a pace that leaves room for questions and photos. The tour meets at the MAG front entry at 1PM and heads out shortly after. Dress for the weather and wear good walking shoes.

This tour is free to attend throughout the month of September as part of our celebration of Alberta Culture Days.

Fall 2026 Film 1: At The Place of Ghosts (Sk+te’kmujue’katik)

Bretten Hannam
Canada | 2025 | 89m | English, French, Mi’kmaw | VVS Films | 14A

Reel Movie Mondays opens this fall with a film that refuses to sit still in one genre.

Mise’l and Antle were inseparable as kids and have not spoken in years. When a malevolent spirit from their shared past starts closing in, Mise’l returns to their home community to warn his brother, and the two set out on foot and by canoe into the forest that gives the film its name: a place where time comes unfixed, where memory and history refuse to stay in the past, and where the brothers will have to face what happened to them if they want it to stop.

Two-spirit L’nu filmmaker Bretten Hannam spent roughly a decade making this, following their breakthrough feature Wildhood. It moves between horror, fantasy, and family drama without ever settling, and it is a genuine ghost story that is also about Mi’kmaw understandings of the spirit world, where the living are surrounded by ancestors rather than separated from them. Hannam has said the title is a real place name in the territory, closer in meaning to a place of spirits, and connected to the Milky Way.

It premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival and was named one of Canada’s Top 10. The score is by Jeremy Dutcher. The cinematography does a lot of the storytelling here, so this is one worth seeing on the big screen!

Please note: the film deals with childhood abuse and homophobic violence, and includes some frightening imagery.

Art Speaks is a learning series developed and delivered in partnership with the Red Deer Arts Council.

oin presenter Betty Oldham for an exploration of Hardanger embroidery, a striking form of Norwegian cutwork with roots reaching back through earlier Asian and European needlework traditions. In Norway’s Hardanger region, embroiderers refined the distinctive open, geometric techniques that would come to decorate everything from everyday clothing to treasured household linens.

When Norwegian immigrants settled in North America, they carried the tradition with them, and it continued to evolve into the Hardanger embroidery recognized today. Betty will trace that journey, from the earliest delicate silk and gauze lace through to the crisp linen and cotton work of more recent generations.

A generous selection of Hardanger embroidered linens and clothing will be on display, and the evening includes a visit to the Norwegian Laft Hus embroidery collection. Whether you have stitched for years or simply love beautiful handwork, there is something here to admire.

This Art Speaks is free as part of our celebration of Alberta Culture Days. We’ll be learning together from 630-8pm, everyone is welcome to attend.

Wear your brightest neon or your whitest white, because the lights are going out in the Stewart Discovery Studio and the black lights are coming on.

We are painting glowing jiggly jellyfish, the kind that wiggle, wobble, and jiggle when you carry them. Once they are made, they need somewhere to go, so there may be a jellyfish parade. There may also be a glow in the dark dance party. We are not making any promises, but we are not ruling anything out either 😉.

Drop in when it suits you. Wear something you do not mind getting paint on, and remember that white and neon light up under black light while dark colours mostly disappear.

Friday Family Fun Night is free to attend throughout the month of September as part of our celebration of Alberta Culture Days.

Guided walking tours of downtown Red Deer. Historic homes, original businesses, public art, and the stories behind the spots you pass by regularly.

Most heritage walks show you the houses of people who could afford to be remembered. Parkvale is different. It was laid out in 1905 for working people, and the homes still standing there were built by the carpenters, railway workers, and shopkeepers who actually built Red Deer.

This guided walk takes you through one of the city’s oldest residential areas, just east of the museum, and out through parts of Coronation Park and the Waskasoo neighbourhood. You will hear about the architecture, the families who lived in these houses, and what they were doing in the years when Red Deer was still deciding what kind of place it was going to be. In late September the whole route is usually under fall canopy, which does not hurt.

This is the longest of our walking tours, roughly two hours at a steady pace with stops. The tour meets at the MAG front entry at 1PM and heads out shortly after. Dress for the weather, wear good walking shoes, and note that the route follows public sidewalks with some gentle grade changes.

THE COMIC STRIPPERS (18+ only)

A male stripper parody & improv comedy show

The award winning improv comedians are back with a new show, more moves and even quicker wits.

A SHOW FOR ALL GENDERS… 18+ ONLY

WARNING! No extreme nudity, just extreme hilarity.

A fictitious male stripper troupe (played by a cast of some of Canada’s best improvisational comedians) performs a sexylarious improv comedy show. They try to be sexy… it just comes out funny. Constantly grooving and gyrating in between scenes they banter with the crowd and perform their hilarious twist on improv sketches. They sing, they “dance”, and they are ready to make you laugh. Semi undressed and completely unscripted, The Comic Strippers take off their shirts and take on your suggestions to create a whole new genre of comedy.

'BEST LIVE PRODUCTION' Canadian Comedy Award Winner

★★★★★ “Extremely Funny!” - UK Fringe Review

“The show is suitable for both men and women. An entertaining ride where anything goes.” – Rip It Up Magazine

"One of the most hilarious shows I've ever seen." - Vancouver Sun

In 2026, breast cancer is expected to account for over 25% of new cancer cases in women – a reminder of how much works remain and why we must act now. With 1 in 8 women expected to face a diagnosis in their lifetime, breast cancer affects us all. This year, the Canadian Cancer Society CIBC Run for the Cure is celebrating 35 years of bringing community, connection and hope to thousands of people across the country who have been affected by breast cancer.

On Sunday, October 4, we’re inviting residents of all ages in the Red Deer area to join us at Bower Ponds to run or walk either 1 km or 5 km, in support of the breast cancer cause. Registration is now open, and participants can choose to fundraise individually or as part of a team.

The Run is one powerful day of action – but the impact lasts far beyond. Because of funds raised through the CIBC Run for the Cure and decades of progress, breast cancer survival rates continue to rise. But more still needs to be done. Funds enable us to invest in the most promising breast cancer research, provide a nationwide compassionate support system, and continue to champion healthy public policies to prevent breast cancer and create a healthier future for everyone. Now more than ever, we need your support. When we act together, we can save lives, improve lives and drive collective action against breast cancer.

Join us and be part of a movement of hope in Red Deer. Register and start fundraising today. For more information or to register visit cibcrunforthecure.com
