How might Art for Social Change lead the way to emotional resilience?
Bringing people together feels familiar in many contexts, such as between work, family, and our social network. What has become a tool for connecting our ecosystems on a larger scale within Arts & Culture initiatives than your average dinner party, is Art for Social Change.
Living a Creative Life 2023 Congress
The 2023 Living a Creative Life Congress focuses on Art for Social Change as we explore the question: How might artists lead the way to a more equitable, inclusive, and accessible city where everyone belongs?
Get inspired, hear about some of the amazing work being done by Calgary artists, exchange ideas, enjoy good food, and possibly find new collaborators for future projects. There is also an online option available for those who can’t attend in person.
How to Build Community

Research, observation, and fact-checking can allow you to pivot quickly and meaningfully during a demanding project. Here’s to supporting your community as it grows into it’s next evolution!
