Manitoba

The Arts Incubator’s programs in Manitoba, anchored by its Winnipeg hub, provide essential support for Northern and rural artists across the province and into Northwestern Ontario. Established with funding from the Canada Council for the Arts and the Manitoba Arts Council, these initiatives offer mentorship, workshops, digital arts training, and land-based projects that highlight Indigenous creativity, rural innovation, and community-driven arts.

Through its Manitoba programs, the Arts Incubator connects emerging and established artists to networks, resources, and collaborative opportunities that strengthen cultural resilience and sustainability. By fostering place-based creativity, interdisciplinary collaboration, and peer-to-peer learning, the Incubator ensures that local artists can develop their practices, showcase their work, and engage audiences regionally and nationally.

With a focus on Northern perspectives and Manitoba arts, the Incubator positions the province as a hub for transformative, community-rooted artistic projects that resonate across Canada’s cultural landscape.

Youth leadership pipelines in the arts are crucial for fostering the next generation of creative voices and community-driven initiatives. Providing mentorship, resources, and opportunities, we can ensure young artists have the support they need to thrive and lead.

We come together at Qaumajuq not as strangers, but as echoes—called into the same light. The space holds us gently, like breath caught in a moment of knowing. Each step on the stone floor feels like a continuation, not a beginning. Here, collaboration feels like remembering. Voices blend, not to rise above, but to ripple outward—soft, certain. We build together in fragments and rhythms, trusting the silence as much as the sound.

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!
