  • A Christmas Carol
    November 29 - December 23, 2018 A Christmas Carol By Charles Dickens Adapted by Dennis Garnhum At Theatre Calgary we strive to create a welcoming, inclusive and safe environment for diverse communities. To formally open our productions, Theatre Calgary will pay tribute and recognize the Indigenous people of the Treaty 7 region as the past, present and future stewards of this land where our performance takes place. In response to the release of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s 94 Calls to Action, the act of giving territorial or land acknowledgement has now become best practice across Canada. In our efforts to embrace the language and spirit of reconciliation, we recognize that our practice will evolve as Theatre Calgary strengthens our relationships within local Indigenous communities and with artists. Theatre Calgary is committed to maintaining regular engagement with Indigenous and community leaders for consultation on best practices. Territorial Acknowledgement Welcome to Theatre Calgary. We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge that this performance is taking place on Treaty 7, signed at Blackfoot Crossing in 1877. We are on the traditional territories of the peoples of Treaty 7 including the three Blackfoot Nations: consisting of the Siksika, Piikani, Kainai Nations; the Stoney Nakoda Nations: consisting of the Bearspaw, Wesley and Chiniki Nations; and the Tsuu T’ina Nation. The city of Calgary is also home to Métis Nation of Alberta, Region III. We are grateful to have the opportunity to present in this territory. am so grateful that we have the opportunity to congregate in a theatre to celebrate the joy of I the holiday season with A Christmas Carol.

  • XV Olympic Winter Games Organizing Committee
    PREFACE The City of Calgary Archives is a section of the City Clerk's Department. The Archives was established in 1981. The descriptive system currently in use was established in 1991. The Archives Society of Alberta has endorsed the use of the Bureau of Canadian Archivists' Rules for Archival Description as the standard of archival description to be used in Alberta's archival repositories. In acting upon the recommendations of the Society, the City of Calgary Archives will endeavour to use RAD whenever possible and to subsequently adopt new rules as they are announced by the Bureau. The focus of the City of Calgary Archives' descriptive system is the series level and, consequently, RAD has been adapted to meet the descriptive needs of that level. RAD will eventually be used to describe archival records at the fonds level. The City of Calgary Archives creates inventories of records of private agencies and individuals as the basic structural finding aid to private records. Private records include a broad range of material such as office records of elected municipal officials, records of boards and commissions funded in part or wholly by the City of Calgary, records of other organizations which function at the municipal level, as well as personal papers of individuals. All of these records are collected because of their close relationship to the records of the civic government, and are subject to formal donor agreements. The search pattern for information in private records is to translate inquiries into terms of type of activity, to link activity with agencies which are classified according to activity, to peruse the appropriate inventories to identify pertinent record series, and then to locate these series, or parts thereof, through the location register.

  • Hurtin' Albertan
    Country Music’s “Hurtin’ Albertan”: Corb Lund and the Construction of “Geo-Cultural” Identity Thèse Jada Watson Doctorat en musique - Musicologie Philosophiæ Doctor (Ph.D.) Québec, Canada © Jada Watson, 2015 Resumé Le concept de lieu fait partie intégrante de la musique country, genre musical traditionnellement associé à certaines aires géographiques, à des paysages ruraux et aux valeurs communautaires. Bien que la littérature sur la musique country ait bien cerné les liens entre ce genre musical et la notion de lieu, en particulier en ce qui concerne la géographie des origines du genre et de ses scènes importantes, on observe un intérêt scientifique croissant envers les chansons de plus en plus nombreuses explorant le thème du lieu. Cette tradition trouve ses racines dans les chansons hillbilly, les chansons de cowboys chantants, le bluegrass du Kentucky et le western swing, où les artistes ont exprimé la nostalgie des lieux familiers et du temps de leur enfance. Ces récits ne décrivent pas seulement le paysage et la culture d’aires géographiques données; plutôt, ils définissent la relation entre les individus et leur environnement, dévoilant ainsi le caractère, les valeurs et les croyances de l’artiste. En se concentrant sur la musique de l’artiste canadien de country alternatif Corb Lund, cette thèse vise à définir cette relation entre cet artiste de musique country et son environement, et à interroger la façon dont il utilise (à l’instar d’autres artistes du genre) ces chansons afin d’explorer plus à fond les liens avec ses origines albertaines. Plus précisément, il s’agit d’étudier comment ces récits de lieu contribuent à la construction de l’identité de l’artiste, ce que Simon Frith (1996) appelle la persona.

  • Canopies and Catwalks: an Architectural Intervention of the Calgary Stampede Grounds
    Canopies and Catwalks: An Architectural Intervention of the Calgary Stampede Grounds By Jason John Pierre Vandenberg A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Architecture M. Arch (Professional) Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2020 Jason John Pierre Vandenberg Fig. 1: Canadian athletes at opening ceremonies of 1988 Winter Olympic Games in Calgary, Alberta. 2 I. Abstract Canopies and Catwalks argues that there is a lack of connection between exhibition space and daily life within Calgary, Alberta. The proposed design will be an intervention into Calgary’s oldest exhibition space, the Calgary Stampede Grounds. While the site is host to numerous annual events, in its current state it is both uninviting and underutilized considering its proximity to Calgary’s downtown core. As an intervention, rather than a redevelopment, the intention of this project is not to disrupt the integral programs of the site. Buildings that include The Saddledome, the home of the Calgary Flames, multiple large event and conference buildings and the Calgary Stampede’s Grandstand are important pieces of Calgary’s identity. Rather, the intervention will focus on a form of urban densification, which weaves itself into the site, renewing the site and creates an inviting space for Calgarians to enjoy everyday. By attracting visitors to the site on a broader scale, the Calgary Stampede Grounds will become a destination for both daily life and Calgary’s largest events. 3 II. Table of Contents I. Abstract II.
