The Calgary Community Painters Society (@yyc.palette) hosted their exhibition reception last week, filling our halls with colour, connection, and creativity.
We spoke with several artists about what it means to share their work at cSPACE and how exhibitions like this help build community, spark conversation, and inspire new creative possibilities.
The CCPS Winter Art show runs until December 22 at cSPACE Marda Loop.
