Music. Culture. Creativity. Community. One unforgettable night.
Canada Bridges and the National Music Centre are proud to present A Youth Explosion (AYE) 2026, featuring the Calgary debut of recording artist LOV (Lovina Tootoosis)!
Get ready for an evening of powerful live performances, incredible Indigenous youth talent, music, art, storytelling, food, and vendors coming together at Studio Bell, home of the National Music Centre.
Whether you’re coming for the music, the stories, the culture, or simply to experience something new, there’s something for everyone at AYE.
Our two new private offices are ready to move into! Each 9′ x 12′ space has natural light and a glass-front door, and you’ll be surrounded by a great community of neighbours.
Each office is a 9′ x 12′ private workspace in a bright, open area of our building. The offices have large windows, glass-front doors, and shared lounge and meeting space just outside. They’re a good fit for a small nonprofit, community group, or solo practitioner who wants a dedicated room without the cost of a full lease.
$600/month, all inclusive [add what’s included, e.g. utilities, internet, access to shared spaces]
On September 6, CommunityWise took to the streets for the Calgary Pride Parade — banner up, flags out, and not the least bit bothered by the rain! We walked alongside Tampon Tuesday YYC, ACCT Foundation, the Asian Canadians for a United Canada (ACUC) Coalition, Canada Bridges, and hundreds of others, wagon full of flags and umbrellas at the ready.
CommunityWise exists to hold space for the organizations doing anti-racist, community-led work in Calgary, and a lot of that work is queer and trans work. Showing up in public, together, with our names on a banner, is a big part of this!
Thank you to everyone who painted, walked, handed out flags, held a corner of the banner, or cheered from a wet sidewalk. See you next year! 🌈
We’re pulling threads of civic and community organizing in partnership with Communitywise Resource Centre, a place where Calgarians have come together for decades to organize! This gathering will focus on identifying advocacy efforts to create the change our communities need. Between an October Referendum to Municipal budgets to increasing austerity how we get organized is increasingly important.
Will you join us, on September 15th?
Come prepared to gather over food, share what matters to you and identify how to build a campaign, learn from community experts and deepen a community of care practice.
Civic Threads is for anyone who needs a place to talk about the structural and political landscape we find ourselves in, find solidarity and looking to find allies to challenge the status quo.
