UPCOMING WORKSHOPS AND EVENTS

Children of Immigration, a youth-led podcast series that gives voice to young people navigating the complexities of migration, racism, and belonging in Canada.

Racism doesn’t always show up as loud or obvious. Often, it’s the quiet moments – the microaggressions, the subtle exclusions, the constant questioning of one’s identity that leave the deepest scars. These experiences can shape how youth see themselves, how safe they feel in their communities, and how they build their sense of self-worth.

Through each episode, young guests share their lived experiences from growing up between cultures to confronting discrimination both online and in everyday life. Their stories remind us that the impacts of racism are not just social, but deeply emotional and psychological.

This podcast is more than storytelling – it’s a call to empathy, awareness, and action. It invites all of us to listen closely, reflect deeply, and create communities where every young person feels seen, safe, and valued.

Join us for a high-energy Bollywood dance fitness workshop that blends movement, music, and community vibes!

We would like to acknowledge the traditional territories of the peoples of the Treaty 7 region in Southern Alberta, which includes the Blackfoot First Nation tribes of Siksika, the Piikuni, the Kainai, the Stoney Nakoda First Nations tribes of Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Wesley and the Tsuut’ina First Nation. The city of Calgary is also homeland to the historic Northwest Métis and to Métis Nation of Alberta, Region 3. We pay our respects to the Elders, past and present, and extend our gratitude for their wisdom and teachings. 

As settlers, we are committed to reconciliation, understanding, and building positive relationships with the Indigenous communities. We are humbled by the privilege to call these lands home and will never take it for granted.

At Art and Creative Skills Collective, everyone is valued and respected. We stand with the 2SLGBTQI+ and trans community, creating a safe and welcoming environment for all. Our doors are open, and our hearts are welcoming to all.
