Frozen Yogurt












I always thought Frozen Yogurt would be a really great name for a winter arts festival in Calgary.  The sub-heading would read CalgaryCultured to Perfection or something.


Oh!  Or Now in Hundreds of Different Flavours!


Or something about toppings.  Ummm...


...The poster could be a frozen yogurt Calgary tower.  Oh! Or a cow eating a frozen yogurt, questioning whether or not that is considered part of a vegan diet.


Speaking of things that are cultured, the Calgary Arts Development Authority has a nifty blog.  Last month, they announced some interesting stats and figures regarding arts and arts funding in Calgary and have been kind enough to post them online for those who couldn't attend.  Some of these stats are really encouraging, though the number of full-time, employed artists in this city is a touch frightening.  Anyway.  We'll discuss that later.


If you are interested, they've posted some stats in a few different formats.  If you have time, go through them all.  Very worth it.


1. Here's the condensed version.













Lead with Culture: 2009 Report to the Community from Calgary Arts Development on Vimeo.



2.  Here is their report online or in PDF.













3.  And here's the extended version (don't worry, it's not actually 47 minutes long).

So check that stuff out.

Okay, CADA, I promoted your website.  Now YOU have to make Frozen Yogurt a reality.  Deal?
