Discover how our Youth Arts Incubator in Winnipeg, Manitoba empowers emerging artists through mentorship, innovation, and community-driven projects. Explore a dynamic hub where creativity, entrepreneurship, and research come together to shape the future of the arts.

This year we were thrilled to see our tomatoes thriving, plump and green, thanks to the support and knowledge we've gained from Manitoba Agriculture and the Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership. Their support has been invaluable in helping us understand food production from the ground up, and we’re grateful for their commitment to fostering sustainable practices with our project.

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!
