500 Collective is home to a diverse community of artists, makers, and creative entrepreneurs working across a wide range of disciplines. From painters, photographers, and ceramic artists to designers, educators, fabricators, and small creative businesses, the collective brings together individuals united by a shared commitment to creativity, craftsmanship, and lifelong learning.

Located in Calgary’s Manchester Industrial District, the collective occupies nearly 6,000 square feet of studio, workshop, exhibition, and event space. Members benefit from an environment that encourages both independent practice and creative exchange.

Throughout the year, 500 Collective hosts workshops, open studios, exhibitions, artist talks, sales events, and community programming that invite the public into the creative process and provide opportunities for members to share their work.

At its core, 500 Collective is a place to create, connect, experiment, and grow.
