Mid-century Modernism at the University of Calgary

The 1950s was a time of great change, seeing Calgary’s image transform from a “wild-west” boomtown to a modern metropolis. The opening of a new state-of-the-art university campus marked an exciting milestone for the city, and no expense was spared when it came to aesthetic design. Join me in exploring the city’s richest collection of mid-century modern jems!
