Day 1 of this years festival begins with a powerful evening of performances by three exceptional artists at the beautiful Knox United sanctuary. Utilizing prepared piano, pedal steel and voice, and pipe organ, this evenings works will immerse you in deep, affecting music that will continue to resonate for much time to come.

Our Day 3 concert at ace art will surround you in rich sensual sound, playfully showcase sound creation as physical and seemingly magical phenomena and get to the heart of things with pure exploratory sonic expression. Join us after the concert for a post-concert soirée at Forth’s cocktail bar!

This year we will showcase a selection of works by multi-media artist, Graham Lambkin (US/UK) at Parlour and feature a special radio presentation by Annea Lockwood (US) at dusk each day. In collaboration with Poolside Gallery we are happy to co-present an adjunct exhibition by Canadian fibre/media artist Kelly Ruth.

To kick off our 19th edition season, join us for a special presentation of Zev Asher’s wonderful film on the Nihilist Spasm Band, ‘What About Me’, at the Winnipeg Cinematheque. Then join us upstairs at Poolside Gallery for a little soirée, featuring a performance by local innovator Aston Coles.
