SUMMARY:Gallery Reception: Holding Ground by Eveline Kolijn and Monica Kidd
DESCRIPTION:Reception: Holding Ground by Eveline Kolijn and Monica Kidd\ncSPACE Marda Loop\nLevel 2\nMarch 6\, 2026\n5:00 PM – 8:00 PM \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEveline Kolijn and Monica Kidd present a photographic inquiry of coastlines at cSPACE. \nCoastlines are dynamic by nature—meeting places where roads end and the ocean takes over\, where ships arrive and depart carrying both possibility and peril. They are the last stop before the horizon: liminal spaces where the boundary between land and not-land is constantly in flux. They are also increasingly endangered. As the planet warms\, sea levels rise and storms intensify\, threatening the health and wellbeing of more than half a billion people living in coastal regions worldwide. \nThis exhibition features photographs of people and places affected by coastal erosion\, created by Calgary-based artists Monica Kidd and Eveline Kolijn\, both of whom bring deep environmental concerns to their work. The images represent projects undertaken in Newfoundland & Labrador\, the Magdalen Islands\, Tuktoyaktuk\, France\, Fiji\, Vanuatu\, and Curaçao. \nIn a time of rapid climate change\, these photographs aim to speak for the world’s oceans and the communities connected to them. \nExhibition Hours:\nMarch 2-27\, 2026.\n8:00 AM – 8:00 PM (Closed Sundays)

SUMMARY:Hallway Gallery: Enchanted Matter by Festival of Animated Objects
DESCRIPTION:Hallway Gallery: Enchanted Matter by Festival of Animated Objects\ncSPACE Marda Loop\nLevel 1\nMarch 9 – 20\, 2026\n8:00 AM – 8:00 PM (Closed Sundays) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Enchanted Matter: Puppetry\, animation and magic” invites audiences into a world where imagination brings the inanimate to life. This exhibition celebrates the power of puppetry and video art together; art forms that not only bridge sculpture\, theatre\, and storytelling\, but are also imbued with spells and intention. \nThe artworks featured in this exhibition blur the boundaries between stillness and motion\, material and spirit. They conjure movement within stillness\, give breath to the lifeless\, and awaken the mythical beings within these objects. Each artwork pulses with the intent of its maker\, reflected in the characters\, scenery and videos featured throughout the exhibition. For each of these artists\, the process is just as important as the final creation. Hidden sigils of empowerment\, appreciation for the small things that surround them\, and a reconnection with inner playfulness and whimsy\, all inform what moves these artists to create. \n“Enchanted Matter: Puppetry\, animation and magic” welcomes you to explore the work of Abbey Leach\, Kathy Austin and Stephanie Quilliams\, and to witness the magic that fills the gallery.

SUMMARY:PRESENTATION: Festival of Animated Objects presents The Light of the Deep
DESCRIPTION:PRESENTATION: Festival of Animated Objects presents The Light of the Deep with Landon Krentz\ncSPACE Marda Loop\nLevel 4 – RGO Treehouse\nMarch 17\, 2026\n8:00 PM – 8:30 PM \n  \nTICKETS \n\n\nIncubator Year 1 Presentation\nThe Light of the Deep is a Sumain-led physical theatre and Visual Vernacular (VV) performance that follows two archetypal figures\, the Fisherperson and the Miner\, on an epic\, image-driven journey. Drawn together by a single glowing firefly\, they struggle\, collaborate\, and transform as they seek either to possess or to share the light.\nThe Fisherperson pursues his catch\, protective and stubborn. The Miner searches for gold\, driven by the desire to share what they discover. Along the way\, the light itself evolves\, shifting from firefly\, to moon\, to lightning\, to anglerfish bait\, constantly testing their relationship and philosophies. Through puppetry\, projection design\, and richly detailed VV\, the performance creates a dreamlike world of wetlands\, caves\, storms\, and oceanic depths.\nAt its heart\, The Light of the Deep asks: is light meant to be held close\, or set free for others? Through physical storytelling experienced by both Deaf and hearing audiences\, the performance explores themes of possession\, generosity\, and release.\nIn the final moments\, both characters achieve what they sought\, the Fisherperson catches a fish\, and the Miner unearths gold\, but realize their true task is to let the light go. What begins as a struggle over ownership resolves as a shared act of release\, offering audiences a visually striking meditation on longing\, freedom\, and the beauty of letting go.\nAdvisories & Accessibility:\nThemes of fear\nRuntime: 45 minutes\nThe Treehouse is located on the third floor of cSPACE Marda Loop\, which is a wheelchair accessible venue.\nIf you are a wheelchair user\, please select the wheelchair accessible ticket.\nIf you are purchasing a wheelchair accessible ticket\, please let us know in the notes if you will be accompanied by a non-wheelchair user.\nFor more information about the accessibility of the venue\, including a video walkthrough\, please visit: https://www.puppetfestival.ca/accessibility/cspace-marda-loop

SUMMARY:PRESENTATION: Festival of Animated Objects presents Right Hand Woman
DESCRIPTION:PRESENTATION: Festival of Animated Objects presents Right Hand Woman by Jocelyn Mah\ncSPACE Marda Loop\nLevel 4 – RGO Treehouse (North)\nMarch 17\, 2026\n8:45 PM – 9:15 PM \n  \nTICKETS \n\nDeftly traversing the boundaries between dance\, theatre\, and puppetry\, Right Hand Woman is a comical feminist battle cry that shines a spotlight on the effects of misogyny on artists with the lived experience of womanhood. This short excerpt from the work offers a surrealist glimpse into Jocelyn’s “living womb\,” reaffirming and rejoicing in the performance of womanhood as a never-ending rebellion that persists—even in the face of death.\nIncubator Year 1 Presentation \nThe presentation is accompanied by an artist talk\, featuring visual materials and reflections on the piece’s creation\, a show-and-tell of the production’s puppets with designer and builder Juanita Dawn\, and an open Q&A that invites curiosity and collective exchange with the audience.

SUMMARY:Hallway Gallery: The Long Way Home by Jennifer Gregoire
DESCRIPTION:Hallway Gallery: The Long Way Home by Jennifer Gregoire\ncSPACE Marda Loop\nLevel 1 Gallery\nMarch 30 – April 13\, 2026\n8:00 AM – 8:00 PM (Closed Sundays) \n  \nThe Long Way Home is a collection of some of her favorite stops along those journeys. Each photograph reflects a moment where she chose to slow down and stay awhile. The images carry a sense of history\, nostalgia\, and connection to the land. \nThis work speaks to the importance of the journey as much as the destination. It invites viewers to take their time\, notice what is often overlooked\, and find meaning in quiet\, everyday places. \n  \nAbout the Artist: \n  \nJennifer Gregoire was born and raised in Calgary\, but it wasn’t until she moved to a small rural town that her perspective began to shift. Life slowed down\, the sky felt bigger\, and she found herself drawn to the quiet places in between. \nHer work is rooted in time spent on the road. She explores backroads across Alberta\, stopping whenever something catches her eye. An old truck\, a weathered building\, or a stretch of highway that feels unchanged. What began as a way to explore gradually became a way of seeing and understanding the landscape around her. \nShe often jokes that she is a professional road-tripper\, but in many ways it’s true.

SUMMARY:Gallery Reception: Rebus Plates for our Times/Assiettes Rebus pour temps qui Courent
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Reception: Rebus Plates for our Times/Assiettes Rebus pour temps qui Courent\ncSPACE Marda Loop\nAlberta Craft Gallery – Level 2\nApril 11\, 2026\n1:00 PM – 4:00 PM\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin Alberta Craft Council and Alliance Française at cSPACE for an afternoon of art\, ideas\, and community with Rebus Plates for Our Times / Assiettes Rébus pour Les Temps Qui Courent. \nBegin your visit on Level 4 in the RGO Treehouse with a thought-provoking craft talk\, Pictorial Puns: Rebus Plates for Our Times\, presented by craft historian Dr. Jennifer Salahub. This engaging talk explores the rich history of rebus imagery—visual riddles that combine pictures and letters to convey layered meanings—and their evolution from 19th-century French ceramic traditions into contemporary artistic practice. \nFollowing the talk\, head down to the Alberta Craft Gallery on Level 2 for the artist reception\, where you can experience the exhibition firsthand and connect with the work in a welcoming\, social setting. \nRooted in a historical tradition popularized by makers such as the Faïencerie de Gien in France\, rebus plates once conveyed everything from moral lessons to political commentary. This contemporary exhibition revisits and reimagines that form\, offering fresh perspectives on the complexities of our current moment. \nFeaturing work by Montréal-born\, Calgary-based artist and Professor Emerita Mireille Perron—founder of the Laboratory of Feminist Pataphysics—this exhibition reflects a playful yet critical approach to art\, craft\, and social discourse. \nWe’re proud to host this free\, public event at cSPACE. Everyone is welcome to attend and experience the creativity and conversation unfolding within our community. \nThis exhibition is generously supported by Alliance Française. \n\nRSVP Online \n\nSCHEDULE: \n\n\n Craft Talk – 1:00 PM- 2:00 PM: Pictorial Puns: Rebus Plates for Our Times Talk with Dr. Jennifer Salahub\, Craft Historian\, RGO Treehouse 4th floor\, cSPACE\nArtist Reception – 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM: Alberta Craft Calgary\, 2nd floor\, cSPACE\n\nFree | Everyone Welcome
