Graham and the Wacky Breakfasts

Graham only eats cereal. Then his aunt arrives, turning every breakfast into a bizarre, wild adventure! Can this picky eater brave her strange new foods and discover a taste for the unexpected?
The Arts Incubator - Winnipeg 16 Sep 2025

Short Stories about Dignity from Art Borups Corners and The Arts Incubator

Does your day start with a perfect routine? For Graham, every morning is a masterpiece of puffed rice cereal, precisely poured milk, and quiet comfort. He loves his tidy world, where everything is just so. But when his family moves in with his vibrant, surprise-loving Aunt Mildred, Graham's perfectly ordered life is about to get a very colorful shake-up – especially at the breakfast table! Aunt Mildred's house is a rainbow explosion, and her culinary creations are even wilder. From fizzing pink potions to towering, wobbly wonders, each morning brings a new, outrageous meal that challenges everything Graham thought he knew about food. Can a boy who cherishes his neat, familiar comforts find the courage to try new things without losing himself in the process? Join Graham on a delicious, dazzling adventure where he learns that stepping outside your comfort zone can lead to incredible discoveries about the world – and about the wonderfully unique person you are. *Graham and the Wacky Breakfasts* is a heartwarming tale about embracing change, celebrating individuality, and finding joy in the most unexpected bites.

The Arts Incubator - Winnipeg is a participatory arts collective and living lab, based in Winnipeg, Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario. It's a space where innovation and creativity thrive. It's latest iteration was launched in 2021 with funding and support from the Canada Council for the Arts Digital Greenhouse. Today, working with students and faculty from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design, we fuse traditional and participatory media arts with artificial intelligence, music, storytelling and community-driven, land-based artist residencies to cultivate new voices and bold ideas. Whether through collaborative projects or immersive experiences, our small but vibrant community supports creators to explore, experiment, and connect. Join us at the intersection of artistry, technology, culture and community—where every moment is a new opportunity to create.

In Unfinished Notes on Silence and Sound, the third volume of the Unfinished Tales and Short Stories series, Tony Eetak from the Arts Incubator Winnipeg invites readers to inhabit the "gaps"—the quiet pauses, the shrugs, and the lingering moments between days that define the most real parts of our lives. This collection rejects the idea of a clean narrative exit, opting instead to capture the "fragmentary nature of memory" through stories that are purposefully messy. From the "erratic flicker" of city lights to the "ancientness" of a Winnipeg winter that never seems to thaw, Eetak explores the weight of things that remain in pieces.

Unfinished Notes on Silence and Sound

The Arts Incubator - Winnipeg 15 Jan 2026
In this latest edition of Unfinished Tales and Short Stories, author Eva Suluk presents a collection that explores the profound weight of what remains unsaid. Eschewing the comfort of tidy resolutions, these narratives are deliberately unfinished, functioning as invitations for the reader to step into the gaps and become a vital collaborator in the storytelling process. Within these pages, the ephemeral becomes enduring through a shared exploration of memory, emotion, and connection.

Unfinished with Care

The Arts Incubator - Winnipeg 14 Jan 2026
A Collection of Broken Resolutions is a gritty LGBTQ+ slice of life anthology and gay romance collection that explores domestic tension and male vulnerability. These unfinished tales and short stories serve as a contemporary BL response to the quiet isolation of the closeted experience. Centered on young adult themes and New Adult fiction, the book tackles the seasonal tyranny of the holidays, mental health, panic attacks, and the emotional struggle of finding belonging. Perfect for fans of realistic queer fiction, slow burn chemistry, and angsty character studies, this literary collection offers an honest look at men in love, coming out, and the bravery required to be truly seen.
