This program guides artists through the exciting process of crafting original songs in a fun and collaborative environment. Participants will explore song structure, lyric writing, melody creation, and performance techniques through hands-on activities and group collaborations. Each week offers new opportunities to create, refine, and share music, culminating in the recording of original compositions. 

No prior experience required! Verse, Hook & Harmony is for people 16 and older and is open to mixed-ability participants and community members.

New this year…extended hours!

The Parkland Painting Collective (PPC) is a group of Calgary artists who meet weekly to paint together: painters who continue to produce quality artwork in a variety of painting styles and preferred media. Our group’s appetite to grow our art practices continues with new approaches, techniques and media to share with you.

We Need Your Support!
To provide our students with an enriching learning experience, we are urgently seeking
donations of sewing machines. Your contributions will not only enhance our sewing classes but
also profoundly impact the lives of the families we serve by giving them hands-on experience
that leads to empowerment and independence.

Meet over 45 local emerging to established artists showcasing: Painting, Jewelry, Glass, Photography, Ceramics, Sculpture and Textiles. Join us April 26 & 27 from 10am - 4pm with free parking and admission, draws and no GST.

Sing. Dance. Give.

We are an auditioned mixed voice choir, based in Calgary. The artistic vision of The Festival Chorus is to provide as wide a variety of classical choral repertoire through a balanced performing season, in order to enhance our Calgary audience's appreciation of choral artistry. The performance of live choral music is as essential a strand in the artistic fabric of a community as great literature, stirring theatre, or compelling visual arts expression.
