A room worth remembering

A campus venue with a city-sized memory.

The Gateway at SAIT was a restaurant by day and a live room by night, bringing touring artists together with Calgary and Western Canadian openers. This independent archive is rebuilding a useful record of the performances, people, and nights that passed through its doors.
