What is better than art in the sun? Art in the sun, with shade 😎 No melting required.

(Also no fear of getting caught in sudden flurries, violent hailstorms or pouring rain, the small print caveats to any outdoor endeavour here in Calgary.)

Don’t throw shade, fund it! 😛

Your donation will fund aluminum structures for our artists and patrons this summer.

To embrace all the weather that comes Calgary’s way this summer, together at containR…

We need your help!

After containR’s 2024 season our most frequent feedback was that shade structures would make containR more functional and enjoyable - you spoke, we listened! This year we want to install an aluminum shade structure over our stage to better care for our artists and performers, as well as supplying moveable shade structures for our audiences. This will be a long term investment, with the structures travelling with us when we move to better the containR experience for years to come!

What’s even better than shade in the heat of the day? Knowing that for every dollar you contribute, Parks Foundation Calgary will match it!

All donations towards this endeavour up to $16,500 will be doubled! (Just like outdoor enjoyment, in shade!) Like magic, this matching campaign will turn your $20 into $40, your $250 into $500! (Too bad we can’t banish mosquitoes too, eh?)

Plus, every donation over $20 receives a charitable receipt, OR the benefits described below, and our deepest gratitude:)

When you invest in containR, you invest in a community gathering space that honours and celebrates individuals, artists and artisans, and communities of all kinds with a brilliant span of interests and identities. Make an impact on your community…

Art is better together - and sometimes, even better in the shade.

Matching funds are available until May 31!
