Winnipeg Manitoba

The Arts Incubator’s central Winnipeg hub is a dynamic platform supporting Northern and rural artists across Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario. In partnership with the Art Borups Corners Collective and with funding from the Canada Council for the Arts and Manitoba Arts Council, the hub provides mentorship, workshops, digital arts training, and land-based programs that amplify Indigenous voices, rural creativity, and Northern perspectives.
As a hub for community-driven arts innovation, it connects emerging and established artists to resources, networks, and opportunities that strengthen cultural resilience and sustainability. Through initiatives in media arts, public art, storytelling, and collaborative projects, the Winnipeg hub ensures that Northern artists and rural creators can develop their practice, share their work, and engage with audiences locally and nationally.
By prioritizing place-based creativity, peer-to-peer learning, and interdisciplinary collaboration, The Arts Incubator Winnipeg hub is not just a space—it is a launchpad for transformative Northern and rural arts projects that connect local communities to the wider Canadian cultural landscape.

One of this summer's creative projects will explore how clay connects art, geology, history, and human storytelling across generations and landscapes naturally.

Manitoba Talks is a public dialogue initiative presented by CBC Manitoba that invites Manitobans to engage in respectful, one-on-one conversations with someone whose views differ from their own. Participants answer a short series of yes-or-no questions on a range of timely and sometimes divisive topics. Based on their responses, they are matched with another participant whose answers differ significantly. The goal is not to debate or persuade, but to foster meaningful conversation rooted in listening, curiosity, and mutual respect. Inspired by a global dialogue model developed by ZEIT Online, the initiative creates space for individuals to step outside their usual circles and engage across perspectives. Conversations can take place virtually or in person in a public setting.

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!
