Spaces

Arts Spaces Playbook: A How-To Guide for those who own and operate creative spaces, those who are looking for spaces, and everyone in between.

Are you an artist looking for space to support your practice? Maybe you need office space, or a studio to create in, or a one night performance space. Or maybe you’re planning a recurring festival. Do you have a great space here in Calgary that’s perfect for sharing but don’t know what’s possible? You’ve come to the right place.
