Call for Interested Participants for MacEwan West (Jasper Place Campus)
The City of Edmonton is in the process of purchasing MacEwan University’s west campus and is expected to take ownership of the building in 2017.
The City hopes to re-purpose this facility into a City-owned, partner-operated community hub with a focus on the arts, multi-cultural and not-for-profit uses. The City is currently seeking interest from community-based organizations that may be interested in operating the MacEwan West facility in conjunction with the City of Edmonton.
