You can listen for the left and right arrow pressed with binding to LeftArrowCommand and `RightArrowCommand``

<controls:Calendar 
	LeftArrowCommand="{Binding LeftArrowCommand}"
	RightArrowCommand="{Binding RightArrowCommand}"
</controls:Calendar>

Or attach to the LeftArrowClicked or RightArrowClicked event handler.

calendar.LeftArrowClicked += (sender, e) => { // do something };
