FLOW... it's the focused place in thinking and doing where we find inspiration, get more creative, and enter the space of mastery and peak performance.

Whatever a person's chosen discipline, it's a space where great ideas are born and where great actions come from: in workplaces, in communities, and in society.

Join our speakers as they take the stage to share and connect their ideas in FLOW, and then take a deep dive into our immersive interactions to share your own ideas and actions with other participants.

If you are a tenant of Aspen Properties or a University of Calgary alumni, please see our special ticket pages at right for partner discounts.

"How do we think our way through the messes we’re in, when the way we think is part of the mess?" – Nora Bateson

This quote, from a recent post by The Ethics Centre, perfectly describes why we called our latest event "Yes, and..." and followed an improvisational approach in selecting our speakers and performers.

Dark Horse Fortune Cookies was forged from a passion to surprise, delight and intrigue. The first cookies were created as an unexpected delivery method to inform close friends and family members that we were expecting our first child. From there it became evident that the artisan-style fortune cookie could be harnessed to deliver a range of messages from highly personalized to funny, cheeky, romantic and more.

​We also understand that finding unique gifts for birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and other special occasions can be difficult. It's the surprise and often hilarious reactions from people when they open and enjoy our handcrafted cookies that keep the embers of our passion for this company burning.

We are based in Calgary and are locally-owned and operated. We pride ourselves on small batch quality (hand-made to order) while catering to individuals and groups of all sizes from all walks of life.

Devour nourished our bodies with scrumptuous food for lunch and refreshment breaks at our 2023 "Yes, and..." event, but went above and beyond to seek out environmentally friendly packaging for our hundreds of meals from Earthware, and partnered with Annex Ales to provide our participants with flavourful sodas!
