Calgary's Creative Pulse: A World of Art Awaits!

Calgary's arts scene is wonderfully diverse. Think of it as a cultural melting pot, reflecting the city's lively spirit. Art holds significant value as it enriches our lives in numerous ways. It serves as a powerful form of self-expression, allowing individuals to communicate their thoughts, emotions, and perspectives. Art can stimulate creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. It also plays a vital role in preserving cultural heritage and traditions. Moreover, art has the ability to evoke emotions, inspire change, and spark dialogue, contributing to a more empathetic and understanding society.

Within a short drive of our hotel, you can find the Arts Commons, a true hub of performing arts. Imagine catching a Broadway show, listening to the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra, or watching a breathtaking dance performance. If theatre is your passion, you'll find plenty to enjoy. Companies like THEATRE CALGARY and ALBERTA THEATRE PROJECTS put on fantastic shows, both classic and contemporary. If you're looking for something different, check out the independent theatre scene.
