Market Collective's 7th Birthday Celebration

Since moving to Calgary in August of 2013 (whoa I have almost been here two years!) I have been constantly amazed at the vibrant arts and culture scene. Calgary truly is a city constantly evolving and improving and it is so cool to be a tiny part of that. Market Collective is an awesome art and design show that features local artists and really tries to promote them. I am so pumped to be able to help them celebrate 7 years and to be involved in their amazing collective. The show is happening in the East Village which is an area of Calgary that is also going through some amazing transformations. It is sure to be so much fun and a great place to check out local art, craft, design, food and music!
