Arts Commons Brings Outdoor Pop-Up Performances with New Project ARTS XPEDITION

Arts Commons is planning pop-up performances from local performers across Calgary with their new project, Arts Xpedition, according to CBC News.

Most of the performances "will be musical - the first one was a light jazz performance in Central Memorial Park - but there could also be breakdancers, tap dancers, clowns or musical theatre," reports CBC News.

The locations are unknown until an hour before the show starts, to stop crowds from forming beforehand.

Music, theatre, and dance. This is Arts Commons. But visual arts, education, weddings, comedy, film, and National Geographic Live? Yes, that is Arts Commons too. Today, we are more than just performing arts. Arts Commons has a little bit of this and that. Which means it has something for you.

There are continually expanding ways of conceiving, developing, and delivering ideas that create new forms of artistic expression. The arts demonstrate the boundless creativity humans possess and the inventive ways they find to express themselves. We live our brand in our programming, our partnerships, and in our openness to feedback and input from our community.

Arts Commons is an inspirational gathering place for all Calgarians and visitors alike. We are a space, both physical and metaphorical, that stimulates senses, triggers emotions, challenges assumptions, starts conversations, and opens minds.
