COVID-19: All community events cancelled. Remains open with limited capacity to members (in addition to their spouses and partners)
Designed to be a home away from the home office, The Commons provides a comfortable workspace for creative entrepreneurs and startup business owners in Calgary.
The Commons team goes to great lengths to take care of each other and their members, with programs like free fitness classes, social events, and a hard focus on mental health and work-life balance. The Commons even offers a ‘Social Membership’ for those that want to be part of the community and may not need the desk space.
