The Creative Spaces Community of Practice in partnership with Calgary Arts Development invites you to attend the fourth in a series of speaker events centred around creative spaces in Calgary. These events have been created specifically to help those who own and operate spaces, those who are looking for spaces, and everyone in between, solve space related issues.

Join us for a free in-person session on Navigating the Leasing Process, led by 2001’s Commercial Real Estate Person of the Year, Donna Banks.

With her deep understanding of the commercial real estate landscape, our speaker, a seasoned professional in the field, will shed light on the leasing process, particularly for those within Alberta’s vibrant creative spaces community. She will share industry tips and tricks, aimed at simplifying what can often seem like a daunting journey for creatives seeking their ideal space. Donna will also open the floor to your questions, offering personalized advice and solutions. This is a unique chance to gain insight from an expert who is well-versed in aligning commercial real estate opportunities with the specific needs of the creative sector.
