Casual Music Evenings

West End Cultural Centre, 586 Ellice Avenue, Winnipeg, Manitoba R3B 1Z8

March 6, 8 PM – 11 PM
Tickets  

Performer, composer, activist, musicologist. These roles are all infused into Jeremy Dutcher’s art and way of life. His music, too, transcends boundaries: unapologetically playful in its incorporation of classical influences, full of reverence for the traditional songs of his home, and teeming with the urgency of modern-day struggles of resistance.

A member of Tobique First Nation in New Brunswick, Jeremy worked in the archives at the Canadian Museum of History, transcribing Wolastoq songs from 1907 wax cylinders. Long days at the archives turned into long nights at the piano, feeling out melodies and phrases, in dialogue with the voices of his ancestors. These compositions have been collected together on his debut LP Wolastoqiyik Lintuwakonawa.

Royal Canoe - W A V E R Record Release
We're going to record the whole thing. It'll eventually become a live album. 
On Waver Royal Canoe is steering into new terrain. The band still has their kaleidoscopic, beat-driven heart, but these songs play with the absurdity of modern life. 

They have played over 400 shows and major festivals around the world, as well as having been on tours with Alt-J and Bombay Bicycle Club. They received a nomination for Alternative Album of the Year at the Junos, and Best Independent Album at the Western Canadian Music Awards.

As the child of Gaia (Mother Earth), we need to be feel connected to her and grounded. Grounding can make a difference in the way we walk in this world as it provides us with that firm and level intention.
Join Marci Sealey and Marion Josey Birch as they present the foundation of grounding and its purpose. Experience various techniques of grounding and come away with a method that resonates with your style, enabling you to incorporate healthy habits into your life.
*
January 22, 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM

Marci Sealey and Marion Joseph Birch collaborate and explore
the Art of Cutting Cords, Hooks and Healing. 
In relationships or interactions our energy can be the energy that can drain us. This is especially if the relationship is toxic, emotionally draining or abusive. Sometimes we feel obsessed with someone or we may feel disrupted by dreams or thoughts of them.

Ethereal cords can continue to bind you to that person, as the energy continues to flow back and forth as spiritual author Doreen Virtue said, “The etherized cord acts like a hose, with energy directed back and forth between two people”. This can happen even if you are no longer in the relationship.

If you recognize a draining feeling, from a workplace, obsessive thoughts or disruptive feelings that are wearing down your self esteem, perhaps this is the workshop for you. Or if you want to break contact with someone, this maybe your first step and organizing yourself to disengage with them.

Prairie Modernist Noir: The Disappearance of the Manitoba Telephone Booth 
by Jeanne Randolph
In rural Manitoba the telephone booth is often the only mid-century modernist structure in the landscape. A building where only one person stands inside will someday seem quaint. These structures played a significant role in pop culture and symbolically, in their day, were emblems of modern technology. 
Jeanne Randolph has been writing, performing for, and contributing to Canadian contemporary visual arts since 1980. Five books of her collected art-writings have been published since 1991. 

Also As Well Too is an artist-run, not-for-profit library and shop for artist books and small press publications.

WINNER of the 2018 Toronto Fringe Best New Play Contest, Vault Projects is happy to finally bring Women of the Fur Trade to Winnipeg!

The year is eighteen hundred and something, just before the collapse of the Canadian Fur Trade. The characters are three women, trapped in a house, in a fort, on the banks of the Red River. The house may be haunted. The fort is definitely haunted. With the impending arrival of Ottawa's foremost colonial masterminds intent on destroying Louis Riel and the Metis and assimilating every Indigenous person they can find, it's up to these three women to save the whole world.
