Photos and Short Stories

The Arts Incubator Winnipeg is a hub and space for experimentation, collaboration, and creative production grounded in real community experience. Through story and photo, we document the moments that shape our work—late-night editing sessions, first-time gallery installations, youth-led workshops, quiet breakthroughs, and collective challenges. These snapshots offer more than a behind-the-scenes look; they reflect the rhythms, relationships, and realities of building something meaningful together. Whether it’s an emerging artist discovering their voice or a group reimagining their surroundings through art, each moment tells a part of the story we’re living and shaping as a creative community. Sometimes, we just post photos we like for fun.

Jukebox In Exile is the new country music album from Flin Flon singer-songwriter C.C. Trubiak, blending classic country, honky-tonk, Americana and traditional storytelling into a collection of songs inspired by resilience, community and life in Northern Manitoba. Written during and after the 2025 Flin Flon wildfire evacuation, the album draws influence from country music legends including Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Waylon Jennings and George Jones. Featuring the singles "Old Country Songs," "Being Rich" and the charting track "Outlaws Meditation," Jukebox In Exile showcases Trubiak's signature songwriting while celebrating small-town life, northern Canadian culture, queer country music and the enduring spirit of Flin Flon. The album is available now on major music streaming platforms.
Manitoba's own C.C. Trubiak's new album "Jukebox in Exile" dropped on June 5! Check it out today!
