Spark is a place for the curious. As Calgary’s science centre, Spark ignites a sense of wonder and fuels a passion for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math (STEAM). Collaboration, curiosity, courage and commitment are at the core of who we are. Spark is a place for people of all ages to discover the ‘why’ behind the science.

TELUS Spark is a not-for-profit organization with a mission to be a role model and force for innovation that drives positive change. The vision? A community transformed by a culture of curiosity, risk-taking and problem solving.

In April 2022, Beakerhead and TELUS Spark Science Centre joined forces to engage and inspire more people and communities with science and technology. TELUS Spark acquired Beakerhead with a plan to grow the future of science communication in communities across Calgary, the province and afar. The future looks brighter than ever before. The most spectacular outreach program a science centre could ever dream of!
