Manitoba arts

Based in Winnipeg, The Arts Incubator is a hub for Manitoba arts, connecting local creators with Northern and Indigenous projects across the province and beyond. By supporting community-driven initiatives, mentorship opportunities, and digital innovation, the Incubator strengthens the arts sector while amplifying the unique voices of Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario. From emerging artists to established cultural leaders, the Incubator fosters collaboration and sustainability, ensuring that Winnipeg and Manitoba’s arts community continues to thrive as a center for creativity and cultural exchange.

Jukebox In Exile is the latest country music album from Flin Flon, Manitoba singer-songwriter C.C. Trubiak. Rooted in classic country music traditions, the album combines heartfelt storytelling, honky-tonk influences and contemporary songwriting inspired by life in Northern Manitoba. Written during a period of wildfire evacuation and displacement, Jukebox In Exile reflects the resilience, creativity and strong community spirit found throughout Flin Flon and across Manitoba. Featuring the singles "Old Country Songs," "Being Rich" and "Outlaws Meditation," the album highlights Trubiak's growing presence in Canadian country music while celebrating the people, places and experiences that shape life in Manitoba's North.

Trubiak, blending classic country, honky-tonk, Americana and traditional storytelling into a collection of songs inspired by resilience, community and life in Northern Manitoba.
