This week for TuNesday, Christy takes us back to a simpler time, when a global pandemic wasn't even on our radar. Back then, Soul Night was THE night in town, The Cavern was packed to the rafters with people MUCH closer than 6 feet, and beautiful music rang out into the street. Reminisce with us and the Dirty Catfish Brass Band, while listening to their album, "Brass Riot."

Thursday at noon Prairie Diva will be offering a FREE contemporary/jazz dance class on The WPG's YouTube channel. If you feel up to it, you CAN pay, but not to us... we'll be collecting donations for the Canadian Mental Health Association Manitoba and Winnipeg. See you Thursday!

Hello out there, Winnipeg! We have some art for you. Here are the details: Local artist JD Renaud (@jdrenaud) enjoys the deconstruction of images. His art is equal parts beautiful and thought-provoking. Then again, maybe it's just fun and frivolous. Then agai-- you know what? Art is subjective and it can be whatever you feel it is! We are happy to announce that some of Renaud's art is now available for sale through The WPG Shop! Head over to thewpg.ca/shop and get yourself a piece of Renaud's art.
