Locked Library: Ghost Stories
Central Library | September 26 | 7:00 pm
Prepare for an evening of exploring, sleuthing, and puzzle-solving in Calgary’s spooky Central Library. You’ll be hot on the trail of mystery in this Library-sized BOO-dunnit, with clues to follow and challenges to solve on every level.
This game is family-friendly—and not actually scary! We recommend this event for ages 12+.
Save $10 with early bird pricing until August 29. All proceeds from this event support vital programming, resources, and initiatives at Calgary Public Library.
Gathering of Words
Central Library — Exterior | Fridays | 4:00 – 6:00 pm
Celebrate the joy of words before you start your weekend. This fun and interactive series brings stories, poetry, and creativity to life with live readings, pop-up performances, literary games, and open-mic magic.
