Beneath the Petals is a meditation on emergence, reconstruction, and quiet joy. Inspired by the luminous interiors of flowers, the soft glow of spring sunlight, and gentle rain showers, this collection explores the beauty that reveals itself when we slow down and notice.

Arts on the Ave and Kaleido are excited to present the 21st annual Kaleido Family Arts Festival!

Kaleido is a delightfully vibrant, distinctly dynamic, radically open celebration of the arts, in all shapes and forms, transforming 118th Avenue between 90th and 95th Streets. This year's theme is Hearts Full of Gusto! Celebrate 21 years of artistic expression in an accessible environment built out of love in the heart of the Alberta Avenue Arts District.

With special curation by The Music Mile, containR Fest presents Natalie Inga. Natalie and her band create a dynamic live experience that moves seamlessly between intimacy and intensity, drawing listeners in with rich vocals and thoughtful, mood-driven arrangements.
With both power and vulnerability, Natalie explores the struggles of self-awareness in a cynical world. This YYC Music Award-nominated songwriter draws on elements of R&B, Rock, and Pop, allowing her to express herself beyond the limits of traditional Folk music.
 

Please join us at the launch party to celebrate the release of Rhonda Webster’s debut book Please Stay with Me! This visually striking book is illustrated by Webster’s daughter-in-law and is a portrait of bipolar disorder, told from the dual perspectives of mother and daughter as they walk side-by-side through this devastating illness.
