Fabrication Field Trip

Ever wonder how a digital rendering transforms into a landmark physical installation? Join us for an immersive exploration of Calgary’s fabrication industry. This curated "field trip" offers exclusive, behind-the-scenes access to the city’s leading production houses, featuring a keynote tour of the innovative studios at Carvel Creative, F&D Scene Changes and Foamworks. Attendees will witness firsthand how complex concepts are materialized through the synergy of advanced engineering and artisan grit.

‍

To conclude the experience, we will gather for a Fireside Chat at the Carvel Creative headquarters. This discussion, moderated by Derek Moser of Calgary Economic Development, will feature industry leaders exploring the profound tension between limitless creative vision and the logistical realities of the physical world; and the mastery required to find harmony between the two.

Transportation for the field trip is provided to and from Contemporary Calgary.
