Indigenous Contemporary Arts and Performance

As part of CMR’s commitment to helping make a positive impact in our communities, we regularly partner with non-profit community organizations that align with our values to offer complimentary services to support their efforts.

This fall, we teamed up with the Making Treaty 7 Cultural Society, by providing pro bono consultation and design services to create the sponsorship package for their holiday production, Bear Grease Christmas Special.

The Society was formed in 2012 to transfer Indigenous knowledge through story and use contemporary arts and performance to educate, entertain, and forge relationships across cultures and generations.

Bear Grease features an all-Indigenous cast with their humorous rendition of the musical Grease, with an added Christmas twist for the holidays. The show has been playing to sold out theatres in Canada and the U.S. since it launched in Edmonton two years ago. The show will be playing in Calgary for three shows only, December 21st and 22nd at the Flanagan Theatre in The GRAND.

Cook's Ferry Indian Band Fire and Flood Relief

Community Revitalization
In 2021, the Cook's Ferry Indian Band was devasted by natural disasters – flooding and wildfires. CMR understands the importance of coming together during times of crisis and supporting one another.

Fig Tree 2021-2023 Strategic Plan

International Community Development
The Fig Tree Foundation is a Calgary based organization that promotes effective, collaborative, and sustainable international development initiatives by making disciplined impactful investments in low-income communities around the world. With our shared core value of working to empower communities towards self-reliance, we were excited to work together with the foundation to develop their 2021-2023 Strategic Plan. We had the privilege of working alongside Fig Tree’s Board of Directors to identify the foundation’s corporate founding statements that define their direction, purpose, and strategic goals. We loved working together to help drive real change!
