💰Three outlaws. One hidden fortune. Countless betrayals.

Join us at The GRAND for a screening of The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly, the ultimate spaghetti western directed by Sergio Leone.

Blondie (Clint Eastwood) and Tuco (Eli Wallach) have a successful bounty scam going on, but the friends become enemies when Blondie two-times Tuco. Ultimately they learn about a stash of gold which brings them into the sights of the even more ruthless Angel Eyes (Lee Van Cleef) and alliances continually shift in the cat-and-mouse game between the three outlaws.

We’re joined by Eighty-Eight Brewing Company pouring locally crafted brews, and Portland Street Pizza serving delicious, mouth-watering pizza before the film.

June is Indigenous History Month, and today is also National Indigenous Peoples Day.

The GRAND is located in traditional territory of the Blackfoot Confederacy, comprised of the Siksika, the Kainai, and the Piikani; the îethka Nakoda Nations, including the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney; the Tsuut’ina; and the Otipemisiwak Métis Government (Districts 5 and 6).

Additionally, we want to take a moment to acknowledge the fact that The GRAND wouldn’t be here without an important and influential woman.
The creation of the once-called Sherman Grand was deeply shaped by Belle Lougheed, an influential Indigenous academic, artist, and community builder. Belle was a high-status socialite and passionate advocate for the arts.

While her husband, Senator James Lougheed, is credited with building the theatre, without Belle’s artistic vision, the Senator may not have built such a world-class venue.

Help shape the future of creative space in downtown Calgary. 🏢

The GRAND is seeking two consultants to support the next phase of exploring how additional space within the Lougheed Building could better serve Calgary’s arts community:

🔹 Community Engagement Lead — to connect with artists, organizations, and communities, particularly emerging and equity-deserving groups, and help identify what creative spaces are most needed.

🔹 Strategic Lead — to facilitate stakeholder conversations, refresh business planning, and help translate community needs into a sustainable long-term vision.

Over the past year, we’ve learned there is significant unmet demand for affordable, professional creative space in Calgary’s downtown core. Now, we’re looking for experienced collaborators to help us answer an important question:
What could this space become, and who could it serve?
This work will directly inform the future of the Lougheed Building and help shape a vision for more accessible, inclusive, and sustainable arts infrastructure in Calgary.

• Timeline: July–October 2026
• Application deadline: June 17, 2026
