SUMMARY:The Stepmother
DESCRIPTION:Interesting Theatre presents the world première of The Stepmother: An Elleston Liddell Radio Adventure \nWINNIPEG\, MB — What happens when a best-selling novelist\, a Methodist minister and a former military intelligence officer find themselves sharing the same identity? For Winnipeg playwright Tim Higgins\, the answer is the Reverend Elleston Liddell\, whose remarkable adventures have become the basis of a series of historical mysteries set in Edwardian Manitoba. \nLiddell returns in The Stepmother: An Elleston Liddell Radio Adventure\, receiving its world première November 18\, 20 and 21 at Young United Church in Winnipeg. The character was inspired by a real Winnipeg clergyman\, the Reverend Charles Gordon\, who\, writing under the pen name Ralph Connor\, was one of the most widely read novelists in the British Empire before the First World War. Like Gordon\, the fictional Elleston combines literary celebrity with an active ministry\, although his earlier service in military intelligence has also equipped him with decidedly unconventional investigative skills. \nSet in Manitoba in 1909\, The Stepmother begins with the sudden death of wealthy landowner Marston Liddell during a winter hunting expedition. His daughter Emily returns from Europe to discover that her father has remarried\, leaving his new wife Hannah in charge of the family estate. The reading of Marston’s will makes both women wealthy but imposes unexpected conditions that neither welcomes. When Emily’s health begins to deteriorate and her relationship with Hannah becomes increasingly troubled\, Elleston and his wife Pamela find themselves drawn into a mystery involving a disputed inheritance\, disturbing family secrets and questions about the deaths of both Emily’s parents. Is the young woman’s increasingly erratic behaviour the result of grief\, illness and family conflict\, or is something more sinister taking place at Endicott Grange? \nThe mystery\, however\, is only part of the entertainment. Interesting Theatre brings radio drama to life in a distinctive theatrical experience that lets audiences watch the illusion being created. Actors perform at microphones\, Foley artists produce sound effects in full view\, and the Elleston Trio performs the musical score live onstage. Without conventional sets or scenery\, the company transports audiences into the world of Edwardian Manitoba\, where country estates\, railway journeys and winter landscapes take shape through voices\, music\, sound … and the\naudience’s imagination. \nWritten and directed by Tim Higgins\, The Stepmother is presented by Interesting Theatre as a fundraiser in support of Young United Church’s continuing ministry in Winnipeg’s West Broadway neighbourhood. \nDates: Wednesday\, November 18; Friday\, November 20; and Saturday\, November 21\,\n2026\nCurtain: 7:00 p.m. each evening\nVenue: Young United Church\, 222 Furby Street\, Winnipeg\nTickets: $20\, available at the church office or at the door\nInformation: 204-783-0128\nRunning time: Approximately two hours\, including intermission

SUMMARY:Driving While Indigenous - Motivational Event & Gala
DESCRIPTION:GET READY\, WINNIPEG! Creative Manitoba is a proud partner with Driving While Indigenous! \nDriving While Indigenous is celebrating 5 incredible years! Join us for a powerful\, high-energy experience featuring a fierce lineup of Indigenous changemakers\, leaders\, and voices who are ready to ignite the room. With hosts and Emcees- Jill Featherstone\, Jessica Dumas\, Ted Williams and Greg Personius! \nWith guests: Jordin Tootoo\, Scott Wabano\, Kairyn Potts\, Dawn Chartrand\, Terri-Anne Strongarm\, Nigel Settee\, Ron Nesrallah\, Connie C. Constant. \nPlus: Bradley Mink\, Jeff Gobeil\, Kaitlynn Brightnose\, The Bannock Babes\, and more…! \nNovember 20\, 2026\n9 am – 4 pm – Driving While Indigenous Motivational Event \n6 pm – 12 am – Driving While Indigenous Gala \nDriving While Indigenous began with the desire to be inspired. \nFounder Jill Featherstone loved the idea of attending motivational events— being in a room filled with energy\, powerful speakers\, big ideas\, and people who made you want to dream bigger. But when she started looking for those experiences\, she realized there simply weren’t many happening close to home. She wondered\, “Why are we travelling across North America looking for inspiration when we have our own Indigenous powerhouses right here?​ We have the storytellers. We have the entrepreneurs. We have the artists\, leaders\, comedians\, musicians\, professionals\, dreamers and changemakers. We can create our own stage.” \nAnd that is how Driving While Indigenous was born. \nJill and her team of volunteers have created a space for Indigenous people to come together\, laugh\, connect\, dream bigger and leave feeling motivated about what is possible. Created with community service providers in mind— the people who spend their days pouring into others\, supporting families\, helping our youth\, strengthening communities and carrying so much responsibility.  \n\n “We cannot tell our youth to chase their dreams if we are not chasing ours.”\n\nCreative Manitoba is thrilled to partner with the Featherstone Group\, bringing speaker Dawn Chartrand to the stage! \n \nDawn Chartrand is an Anishinaabe artist\, entrepreneur\, wellness facilitator\, singer/songwriter\, and speaker from Rolling River First Nation\, based in Winnipeg\, Manitoba. Her work is rooted in creativity\, culture\, connection\, and the belief that art\, movement\, music\, and laughter can be powerful pathways to wellness and healing. Dawn began painting in 2017 as a way to express her visions\, dreams\, and life experiences. Since then\, her artwork has reached audiences throughout Turtle Island and beyond\, with original paintings and murals featured in Indigenous businesses\, schools\, organizations\, and communities. \nThrough OM-Digenous Yoga & Wellness (est. 2022)\, Dawn facilitates culturally grounded experiences that bring together art\, gentle movement\, breathwork\, laughter\, music\, and Indigenous teachings. She has worked with children\, youth\, families\, adults\, and Elders in communities and organizations across Manitoba and beyond. \nAs a speaker and facilitator\, Dawn shares from lived experience with warmth\, humour\, and authenticity. Her presentations explore themes of\nidentity\, resilience\, healing\, creativity\, and reconnecting with culture and community. Whether she is speaking\, painting\, singing\, or facilitating a wellness experience\, Dawn’s goal is to create spaces where people feel welcomed\, connected\, and inspired.​ \n\n\nEarly Bird ticket sales end Oct. 20th and we are 65% sold out!

SUMMARY:Loom Beaded Earring Workshop
DESCRIPTION:In this 6 hour workshop you will learn how to plan out a pattern\, choose beads\, prepare the loom\, make a pair of earrings\, remove from the loom and finish them off. \nThe instructor will give the recommended size to work with based on the time allotted for this workshop. If you choose to make a larger or more detailed pair of earrings and are unable to complete them in time\, you are able to rent a loom and buy some extra beads to take home. \nYou will have multiple bead options available in various shapes\, colours\, sizes and finishes. \nAll materials are included: Looms\, various beads\, paper and markers for planning patterns\, tools\, etc. \nThere will be 30 minutes for lunch (bring your own bag lunch please). \nAbout the Instructor: \nShanelle St. Hilaire (she/they) is a Red River Métis beader from Treaty One Territory Winnipeg Manitoba. Her beadwork is contemporary\, sleek\, colourful and for all! Most of their work is beadwoven using a beading loom\, the imagery they often work is very geometric using circles to represent moons. Space imagery such as the solar system and stars has more recently made it’s way into their beadwork. They also use the traditional Ceinture Flechee pattern and reinvent it to honour her metis culture and community. In 2022 St. Hilaire began loom beading practicing to make their own large-scale beaded Ceinture Fléchée which quickly blossomed into a deep love and obsession with beading and is now a part of her daily practice. They started this business as wearable art and expression of self and culture is very important to them. \nRegistration Information: \n$25 Supply Fee \n$125 Regular Registration (total fee $150) \n$115 MCML Discounted Registration (total fee $140)

SUMMARY:Building Your Artist Bundle: Session 1 - Asemaa
DESCRIPTION:Urban Art Biz – Building Your Artist Bundle is a series of four workshops to help Indigenous Artists prepare a fully realized grant application in time for the spring 2027 funding deadlines. Our goal is to walk you through each step of the grant application process to help you increase your chances of securing funding for your project. \nThis workshop will be held IN PERSON. \nOur first session – Asemaa (Tobacco) will introduce you to funding opportunities and discovering where you can ask for support for your artistic vision. \nTobacco\, or asemaa\, is known as the first medicine that the Creator gave to the Anishinaabe people. It is used for smudging and offered as a gesture of reverence in almost every aspect of life. This sacred herb is a conduit for communicating with the spirit world\, a medium through which thoughts and feelings are conveyed. When tobacco is offered\, prayers are shared not only for oneself but also for family\, relatives\, and the collective community. In most Anishinaabe teachings\, tobacco sits in the eastern doorway\, which signifies new beginnings\, as the sun rises in the east. Asemaa is a medicine of gratitude\, humility\, and offered as a gift of respect when seeking guidance\, teachings\, or requests for help.  \nEach of our four workshops will be led by an established Indigenous Artist or Relational Maker. \nSession 1 Asemaa Topics Covered: \n\nResearching Available Grants\nExploring grant guidelines\nPreparing your Artist CV\nCreating an Artist profile on funders’ profiles.\n\nWe ask that you bring: \n\n A laptop\, a tablet\, something for you to take notes on.\n A version of your artist resume – it can just be in note formation\n An idea for an artistic project you want funding for\n\nFor those new to the granting world\, we will guide you through the maze of funding opportunities to help you find which grant is right for your project. We will help you prepare your artist CV to highlight your skills and experience.
