March is here and spring is on the horizon. Take a deep breath, Calgary. You made it.

We have now been in some form of quarantine and self-isolation for nearly a year. While many of us are still mourning the loss of our old 'normal,' we are now at the point where creative solutions and changes have come about to make sure we get to experience some of what we used to--even if slightly modified.

There are a handful of events happening this month that we are excited to share with you!
