Bet you’ve never heard of cake like this before.

That’s because this is: CAKE (community+arts+knowledge engaged) Youth Arts Society. CAKE is a youth-led project in Calgary that encourages creative youth to explore and utilize their talent by getting involved in their community and professional development. With the goal of becoming the first youth-led and artist-run centre in Canada, CAKE is working on partnering with the youth friendly, artist-run culture in the city to create cool opportunities for youth artists between the ages of 12 and 25.

Check out the video below for more info on this really cool project and how and why it was born – it could change the arts culture in Calgary!
