Upcoming
Design Matters Lectures Series
The Design Matters Lecture series is the longest running lecture series on architecture and design in Canada. Each year we invite some of the biggest and brightest lights in the world of design and city-building to give a public lecture. This year, all lectures take place at our new downtown pilot location: the City Building Design Lab.
Exhibitions
The two galleries, Stantec Gallery and City Building Gallery, offer an active public rotation of exhibitions, and provide design enthusiasts a place to explore research, investigations and visions of the future of places. Guest artists and design exhibitions include partners such as d.talks, alumni, and community groups.
