Bodil Kaalund (Nov. 8, 1930 - 2016), was a Danish painter and textile artist who was taught by her artist father, and then entered the Academy in 1950.

She has created a lot of religious art for Danish churches, some of which is kept at the Lemvig Museet for Religiøs Kunst, created in 1994, partly for that very purpose.

Kaalund also had a tight connection to Greenland and helped found Grafisk Værksted in Nuuk, whiich later became the Greenland Art School.
