Have you sampled the spicy sweetness of Aroma’s delicious entry for the YYC Hot Chocolate Festival yet? 

With a perfect balance of chocolate and chili, it delights the taste buds without being overly sweet. Plus, it comes with a crunchy Mexican buñuelo cookie!

Proceeds support Meals on Wheels. Available until the end of February!

✨ Throwing it back to last week’s Nuit des Artistes—what a night! 🎭🎶✨

From the smooth jazz stylings of Tina Hartt to captivating AWCS author readings in the RGO Treehouse, fantastic live figure drawing at Atelier Artista with our stunning artists Bunny, Elena, and Doug, plus incredible support for our Exposure photographers, the energy was electric! ⚡📖📷 A huge thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate the arts with us. 💛
