Canadian Mountain Arts Foundation
The Canadian Mountain Arts Foundation (CMAF) is a Canadian nonprofit organization and registered charity (Business Registration Number: 876995671RR0001) based in Canmore, Alberta. Established in 1996, it operates as a volunteer-run entity with a mandate to foster arts participation and appreciation in the Bow Valley region[2][5].
Mission and Activities
CMAF's mission centers on using the arts to "build community and enrich lives," aiming to create a Bow Valley where residents actively engage with and value artistic expression[3]. Key objectives include exposing the community to Canadian artistic talent, organizing exhibitions and performances, advocating for cultural needs, and coordinating regional arts initiatives[5]. The foundation operates artsPlace, a community arts hub that hosts live music, film screenings, comedy events, and workshops[1].
Governance and Strategic Direction
The organization is governed by a volunteer board of directors and staff, with recent strategic goals focusing on expanding outreach beyond physical spaces, promoting diversity and accessibility, and facilitating social good through arts-driven initiatives, including Truth and Reconciliation efforts[4]. CMAF emphasizes collaboration with local artists and organizations to amplify community engagement[2][4].
Programs and Events
CMAF organizes annual festivals such as the Canmore Festival of Art and Creativity and the Vic Lewis Band Festival, alongside regular programming like the MET Opera Live in HD broadcasts and indigenous film nights[1][2]. Recent events include the Fly Fishing Film Tour and performances by artists such as Ellen Doty and Zebra[1][4].

Amery Sandford’s practice is shaped by the places she’s lived—Alberta, Newfoundland, and Quebec—and reflects a deep interest in local culture, tourist spaces, and identity; ideas that deepened during a recent return to her hometown. "Returning home to create in the landscapes that shaped me is something I once only imagined as a kid growing up in the Rockies," says Amery. Last year, Amery developed a drawing-a-day series grounded in Bow Valley memories and present-day observations—from her mom riding a ski lift with her dog in the 1980s to the crowds now filling Sunshine Meadows. These works blend memory and place, personal and collective history.
