Finish strong, Calgary! One more day for Chinook Blast!

What an incredible 4 weeks! From media launches thru to the last week of the festival, the fair weather definitely put the chinook in Chinook Blast. The crowds were very supportive of all the amazing installations, music, projections, performances, skating, and midwinter magic. From our stilting vantage point, we saw all kinds of positive community connections being made. Spectacle brings out the wonder in all of us. Let us all continue to hold tight to the transformative power of art and creativity. Thank you to the talented team who reprised both LED performance art projects: GLOWful Wanderings and Trails of Light.
Performers: Lavender Wong (.ty.wong), Allara Gooliaff (), Tara Blue (), and Mara Liao Esnard () — Three Left Feet doesn’t exist without your can-do effort, flexible mindset, and professional rigour. So damn grateful for you.
Costumes: Marcia Tofer () from Dream Dance Circus () in Grande Prairie — your imagination is unparalleled.
LED Glow for GLOWful Wanderings and Picnic Playground: Teigan Blondin de Boer ()— troubleshooting should be your middle name, but it turns out brilliance is your game. Thanks for being a sounding board and making all the costumes sparkle and shine.
Photos by Neil Zeller Photography () — Love composing shots with you but ultimately, the game is seen through your lens. Symmetry, reflection, and light. Boom!
