Free First Thursday

Join us for a creative evening celebrating Pride! Enjoy a free, all-ages evening with music from a live DJ, and hands-on art-making activities for all ages.

Please join us as we play the card game Re/Turn: A Gifting Game, conceived and developed by the Play, (Re)Design, and Learn Group at the University of Calgary. Inspired by Ghazaleh Avarzamani's solo show *Churn, Earn, Burn and then Return*, Re/Turn: A Gifting Game gives players an opportunity to counter the hostile reality of imposed rules and competitive society. It's a collaborative card game where players constantly change rules and goals to gather and share resources within the community and beyond. Centered on communication, collective decision-making, and reciprocity, the game reminds players that individual and collective actions within the community could resist and impact dominant structures.

Explore our exhibitions, make something of your own, and connect with friends, family, and community in a fun and welcoming atmosphere. Come as you are and celebrate through art, music, and togetherness.

Enjoy free admission from 5–9 PM, a curated bar featuring wine, craft beer, and non-alcoholic beverages, and an evening of art, design, and community. All ages are welcome.

**Art for All - FREE with registration.**
