The CHACA Mixer Night, “From HKG to YYC,” was a vibrant evening of resource sharing, storytelling, and community building at Sparrow Artspace. Featuring speakers Sandra Neill (Founder of Sparrow Artspace), visual artist Yiting Hui, and drama educator Tiffany Lai, the event offered valuable insights into what it is like to build an artistic career in Calgary. Attendees learned about local art industry resources, funding opportunities, exhibition and performance platforms, and practical pathways for emerging and established artists. The evening fostered meaningful conversations and strengthened connections between CHACA’s artist and non-artist members, creating a supportive network that encourages collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and growth within Calgary’s arts community.
