A thriving culture is inclusive, diverse, equitable and accessible. By embracing these values, cSPACE believes we are open to vast creative potential. Amplifying diverse artistic voices and perspectives contributes to vibrant city building and fosters a vital sense of community and belonging. Artistic expression can bring us together in these increasingly polarizing times.
Curious about what you can do to support and celebrate Indigenous History this month? The Calgary Foundation has some great ideas in their Ally Toolkit and Resource Guide.

Posted withregram • wee_witches Announcement! Wee Witches is co-presenting "Allgeric to Water" at cSPACE on June 8th, 9th, and 10th and you are invited!
What does that mean?
"Allergic to Water" created by Jacqueline Russell and performed in collaboration with musician Jeremy Gignoux, tells the story of Melusine, a mermaid trapped in a human body. Melusine develops a mysterious chronic illness that leaves her unable to work or function.The show explores the gendered implications of chronic illness, and the ways in which all those who experience gender oppression struggle to be heard and believed by the medical system.
"Allergic to Water" explores how humour, parody, and ridiculousness can deconstruct expectations about the often-unwitnessed experience of chronic pain and tell a different story.
Wee Witches and Inside Out Theatre are co-presenting "Allergic to Water" as "Discovery Performances", meaning this is a stepping stone to creating a final product, and a chance for the artists to listen deeply to audience responses.
