2025 Living a Creative Life Congress: Register Now
Our 2025 Living a Creative Life Congress takes place on Thursday, November 20, 2025 at the DJD Dance Centre (111 12 Ave. SE) from 9:30am to 4:30pm. The theme of this year’s event is Inspiring Civic Participation through the Arts.
For the past two years, the Living a Creative Life Congress has focused on art for social change. This year, in response to a call inviting artists to experiment with ways to inspire civic participation through the arts, five local artist collectives created innovative projects to encourage Calgarians to imagine the kind of city they want to live in and become more civically engaged. Find out what happened with those projects at our 2025 Congress, featuring a review of the Creating our Calgary project, re-enactments of some of the artist collectives’ activations and some tips for your own community-driven art practice.
The in-person event if now full, but there is an online option for the morning session. Learn more and register here.
