A big thank you to the calgfoundation and cSPACE Projects for giving us the opportunity to be part of something so meaningful. Your support continues to create inclusive spaces where community voices, creativity, and collaboration thrive.
The Calgary Stampede is more than just a celebration,it’s a powerful reminder of the heart of our work and the importance of community. Events like these remind us why we do what we do: to connect, uplift, and build stronger relationships across all walks of life.
We’re honored to contribute to this vibrant city and are grateful for partners who make it possible.

As twilight stretches her fingers across the sky,
two more shadows step forward from the veil.
Meet Caleb icefurniture — a master of mournful elegance,
whose gaze alone could unravel a family curse.
And Jenn jenn.bell90 — equal parts storm and sparkle,
weaving whimsy through even the darkest halls of heartbreak.
They are part of the haunted ensemble behind Wuthering Frights,
where tales of longing, loss, and lunacy bloom anew each night,
plucked from your suggestions and born in candlelight.
Dare you descend into the gloom with us?

My upcoming show "A Tasting Menu" explores the concept : What if an artist introduced themselves like a chef?? I built a 12 "course" set of paintings that takes an intimate glimpse at all parts me. I can`t wait for you to see it 🧡

Today, we honour National Indigenous Peoples Day by reflecting on the artists, elders, and communities whose wisdom and creativity bring life to cSPACE.🧡
“Every society, in one way or another, lays claim to a territory… it is through this mutual relationship with the land that cultural icons, symbols and images, values, customs, ceremonies, stories, songs, and beliefs of the people are developed.”— Dr. Leroy Little Bear
At cSPACE, these words are lived through projects like We Are All Treaty People, a collaborative mural by Nathan Meguinis and Doug Driediger, and through community gatherings such as the Four Winds Indigenous Showcase & Market, and most recently, through fireWORKS by ARTICLE 11 at the Historic Fire Hall No.1 - celebrating resilience, showing the power of buffalo and of the people that belong to this land, and how we all share it today.
We are grateful to live and create on the lands of Treaty 7, and to continue learning from those who have always been here.
