Join us as we celebrate the launch of Road, Rail & Runway: Calgary’s Forgotten Transportation History — a fascinating journey through the city’s rich and often overlooked transportation past. From Indigenous trails, to bicycles and streetcars, to the dreamers and entrepreneurs who brought commercial aviation to Calgary, this map tells the story of how different modes of transportation went in and out of fashion. Hear from researcher Carol Kehoe and artist Barbara Sutherland as they offer a behind-the-scenes look at the making of this unique map, and discuss the bridges, railways, and runways that shaped Calgary into the city it is today.
