Winnipeg

Our Arts Incubator Program, based in the heart of downtown Winnipeg, Manitoba, is a vibrant new initiative designed to celebrate and elevate Canada’s arts and culture. This dynamic space fosters participatory arts, providing opportunities for creative expression through music, storytelling, Indigenous art, and special events for all ages. Rooted in community-building, the program offers youth-focused activities, workshops, and mentorships that bring together artists, families, and audiences from across the region. Our programs have been supported by the OpenAI Researcher Access Program., the Canada Council for the Arts and the Manitoba Arts Council.

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!
