LAST DAYS TO CATCH ROOTED at cSPACE Eau Claire in the old Eau Claire & Bow Valley Lumber Co. Building.
Tory Manywounds continues his artist-in-residency until Monday. Drop in daily from 2-7pm. Or 2-10pm on Saturday.
Tory will be on site to walk you through his exhibition of resin art, Rooted. This series explores Tory’s perspectives on growing up bi-racial in Calgary. Along with Tory’s specific viewpoint he has captured an intense universality that urges you to explore your own personal dualities.
In addition, a selection of Tory’s other metal based art, and hand made jewelry will be on display.

We were formed in 2011 by the Calgary Arts Development Authority and The Calgary Foundation with a mission to incubate our city’s creative talent. Our purpose is to own, build and operate large scale, multi-tenant centres that support our city’s artists, non-profit organizations and social entrepreneurs through affordable space, networking opportunities and specialized programming. Our vision for Calgary is a city where creative enterprise thrives in vibrant communities. Our mission is to develop creative places that connect people and ideas through places that ignite collaboration and community-led change.
Eau Claire & Bow River Lumber Co. building
The Eau Claire & Bow River Lumber Co. was established in Calgary in 1886. The present building (on the City’s inventory of evaluated historic assets) was built c.1903-04 and was the second office erected by the lumber company. Since 1978, it has been known to Calgarians as the beloved 1886 Cafe. The wood frame building is being raised to meet flood plain requirements and was moved while Eau Claire Plaza undergoes redevelopment. The building is now temporarily situated at the northwest corner of 3rd street and 2 Ave SW, and is fitted with accessible ramps, attractive outside deck areas, and inviting lighting to support the hub’s use.
cSPACE Projects acknowledges that we live, work and play on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy, which includes Siksika, the Piikani, and the Kainai. We also acknowledge the Tsuut’ina and Stoney Nakoda First Nations, the Métis Nation (Region 3), and all people who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta.
