Exhibition: Life in Warm Colors
May 2025 marked the 10th anniversary since we broke ground at cSPACE Marda Loop—and look how far we’ve come, together! This milestone is a tribute to the creative community that has brought the building to life.
We marked the occasion with an impromptu group photo on the front steps—with a small but powerful sample of the tenants, co-workers, staff & students!
To everyone who`s walked these front steps, let’s celebrate what we’ve built—literally and figuratively—over the past decade. 🥳

🏛️✨ What a walk! Our cSPACE Marda Loop Walk with @janeswalkyyc and @mardaloopcommunity was a sold-out success!
Thanks to Kate and Erin for leading the tour and everyone who joined us to explore how a 1912 sandstone school was reimagined into a LEED Gold certified arts hub.
From history buffs to urbanists to curious creatives, your presence made this Jane’s Walk special.
📍King Edward School opened in 1913 and has evolved from a community hub to what it is today: a platform for Calgary’s creative future.
