Estuary Creative, offering creative services and performing arts support to arts organizations in the Calgary area, is the husband and wife team of Colin and Alida Lowe. We work with existing organizations to bring our training and expertise to their programming, advocacy, new work creation, and client services.
Between the two of us, we are: film and video editor, camera operator, producer, arts administrator, director, actor, composer, arranger, theatrical lighting and sound designer, arts advocacy consultant, organizational development specialist, marketing support, pianist, singer, visual artist, and more.
We each have extensive training in a variety of artistic disciplines, and we bring our broad base of knowledge and experience to every project that we do. We bring a deep passion for the creative, generative, artistic side of the field, and we combine it with a thorough understanding of the administrative and management skills that hold it all together.
We want to see Calgary's arts community continue to thrive and gain international recognition, and our way of contributing to that growth is to use our unique and complementary skills to partner with organizations already doing innovative, bold, and creative work in the community.
