What’s going on in
our community
Singing is about coming together and making a joyful noise. Whether you’ve sung in choirs or only in the shower our professional choir director will lead you – when we can sing again – in fun and engaging songs that will leave you wanting more.
This is your chance to connect to music you know, broaden your horizons with pieces you’ve never heard and learn about the lives of the music creators, be they Beethoven or the Beatles.
Thanks to United’s many partnerships with leading cultural organizations and professional musicians, you get the best seats in the house for country, classical, jazz, choral and other concerts right in our community.
Whether you’ve been a longtime subscriber to groups like the Calgary Phil, Calgary Opera or Calgary Jazz Orchestra, or exploring concerts for the first time, regular excursions to music venues around the city keep us connected with the best our city has to offer.
Many of our residents have a strong art practice. We encourage beginner and experienced artists to continue their work in our well-equipped studios. Standard materials are provided as well as the environment to allow their creativity to flourish.
Our professional artists bring a variety of expertise in contemporary art practices. We have an ever-changing schedule of creative workshops to explore the wide world of art from digital media, textile art, 3D paper forms, fine craft techniques, collaboration and more!
Our studios are fully equipped with all the tools necessary to create with clay including pottery wheels. A kiln for firing is at Fish Creek and available to both communities. Residents have the opportunity to explore techniques in hand building, wheel throwing, and sculpture.
Regular still-life drawing workshops exercise our artists’ sketching skills. These workshops aid in perspective and composition, and are always a pleasant social gathering.
A recent excursion to the River Cross Ranch included lunch, a visit with therapy horses, a keepsake, and tons of smiles and laughter.
We are fortunate to have many great art galleries and cultural institutions in our city. These experiences spark dialogue and inspire creativity.
Performance in the Fish Creek theatre
The Calgary Philharmonic (CPO) has been a cornerstone of Calgary’s arts community since 1955. As a partner with United, residents can attend selected CPO dress rehearsals. They also enjoy in-house performances and lectures by Calgary Phil musicians.
