8 things to do this week in Calgary (March 16-20)
Listen, we know that things are pretty crazy right now, so that makes our list of things to do somewhat difficult to put together. Any or all of these things may indeed be cancelled, but we still want to let you know of the things happening around the city. That being said, be safe, wash your hands, and we strongly encourage you to practice social distancing, even if that includes doing absolutely none of these.
