Loft 112 is commercial space + loft apartment at #112 535 8 Ave SE in Calgary’s East Village that serves as a center for writers and artists of all kinds from the Calgary literary, arts and academic community. Loft 112 is a creative hive where ideas are given space to develop, a place where emerging writers, readers, artists and poets are supported, a place where unheard voices are given a platfor
m and a place of collaboration. Each month the Loft aims to host public, collaborative and group-specific programs and projects from poetry and prose readings, youth activities, cocktail parties, film screenings, seminars, lectures, dinners, workshops, art exhibits, and musical performances. Writers and artists can work, write, teach and collaborate in the "hive" space-- an open, dynamic, multipurpose room with a kitchen, moveable furniture and space for conversation. The Loft aims to eventually have a strong virtual presence, an archived library and materials and equipment for creating small publication projects.
