About

Our focus at Webster Galleries is to exhibit quality originals from Canadian artists who are showing both nationally and internationally.

We specialize in original art: oils, acrylics, watercolors, bronzes, carvings, and hand pulled prints displayed throughout a newly renovated space.

After 40 years, Webster Galleries is still a locally owned and operated business in Calgary. We've seen a lot of changes in that time and made a lot of friends.

Our commitment remains the same: To create a space where people can enjoy fine art, learn about what they like and what inspires them, and bring that experience into their homes and businesses.

 

 

 

 

 

                                                                                                                                                                                                                               


The new Owner & Director of Webster Galleries is Paula Cook. Paula spent 20+ years over in Europe working as a Tour Guide. Most of her time was spent in Western Europe but she spent several Seasons in Russia and Scandinavia as well as long periods running France, Italy, Switzerland, Austrian and many other Regional Tours. She has lived in London, Paris, Amsterdam and Christ Church New Zealand but returned to Calgary in 2007, where she was born and bred.

 

Paula bought Avenida Art and Framing in May 2018 and several months before the deal was completed, a mutual friend put Paula and John Webster together and a deal was struck! Taking over Webster Galleries in combination with Avenida Framing is an absolute dream come true and she lives her passion every day.

 

 

 


Our Framing Department is run by Master Framer Anna Niewinska. Anna has been with Avenida Framing for 20+ years and there is not an item, a challenge, or a unique piece of paraphernalia that she's not seen before and dealt with to the very highest of standards. Anna along with her team members  Emilia and Magda, have the very highest of standards and nothing leaves the studio until it is 100% perfect. Everything is hand cut, joined and finished here in the gallery (with the exception of plaque mounting which is sent to a third party for completion), making us truly your custom framing experts!
