Enriching Communities through Seamless Integration of Live Arts: ‘Live in the CommonUNITY’
Calgary House Concerts presents
‘Live in the CommonUNITY’ is a concept focused on harmonizing music to unite communities and enhance urban life.
By hosting live experiences in neighborhoods, we encourage human connections and bolster social cohesion. We acknowledge music’s ability to create shared experiences and strengthen neighborhood ties. Bringing the arts closer to home offers significant social benefits, serving as therapeutic tools for artists, audiences, and community leaders alike.
Harmonizing Music as a Unifier:
Our approach utilizes music to captivate attention and create memorable live experiences accessible to All Ages urban residents. We understand that the true magic of live music lies in its ability to bring people together, fostering togetherness and enjoy the shared social health benefits. By integrating live music into community fibers to create richer, more connected neighborhoods while supporting Local and Touring world-class artists.
Promoting Community Engagement and Enhancement:
Through ‘Live in the CommonUNITY,’ we boost awareness of local services, programs, and spaces by drawing more foot traffic and fostering memorable shared experiences within walking distance of home. Live music serves as a powerful draw, bringing residents together and promoting community-operated businesses while expanding arts programs at community centers. By offering food and beverage options, we facilitate casual and friendly interactions by connecting artists with nearby residential communities & associated locations reduce while reducing carbon footprint.
Strategic Art Integration:
We integrate arts into Community Centre facilities as gathering spots, tapping into the abundant talent and contributions of local artists. By providing novel platforms for performers to connect with diverse audiences in residential areas, we boost economic activity for artists and host communities while fostering close relationships between artists and residents.
Through collaboration, we enrich Community facility event offerings, guaranteeing inclusive and safe spaces for small gatherings. We’re open to discussing additional opportunities with Community Associations to leverage synergies or cost efficiencies.
Our primary goals are enhancing community culture and providing tangible real world affirmation, support for local cultural workers, both financially and emotionally, which is crucial to survive in today’s world.
Commitment to Community Welfare:
Our dedication to community is evident through our ‘Live in the CommonUNITY’ initiative, where we bring live performances to residential areas. The relaxed atmosphere and shared love of music bring people together to enjoy an intimate musical experience, offering numerous opportunities and psychosocial benefits for both artists and audiences.
We facilitate pathways for volunteers and supporters to take on leadership roles, fostering a sense of connection among like-minded individuals who appreciate live music and shared meals, all within walking distance from home.
Additionally, to address community food insecurity, we’re grateful for the generous donations from residents and friends to our Veterans Food Bank & Community Food Library boxes, which are collected during our gatherings.
