Music Runs Through It presents Danny Michel.
August 10th at The Cap in Fredericton – Doors 7pm / Show 7:30pm
August 12th at the Tide and Boar in Moncton – Doors at 10pm
“With two Juno nominations and six solo albums to his credit, Danny Michel is one of the finest and most charming songwriters to grace the stage. His honest and straightforward lyrics, earnest live performances, and engaging stage banter, have earned him a devoted global fan base. As his fans will attest, he is a spontaneous & fearless performer.
If you’ve seen Danny live in concert, you’re probably already a fan. If you haven’t, you are missing out on “one of this country’s musical treasures” (Toronto Star). Like a chameleon, he slips into any genre with ease, playing off the energy of the crowd. Danny is an innovator, demonstrating that creative artists in the digital age can build a rich, successful and intimate relationship with their fans. He gained publicity in 2008 for making the tracks of his hit single “Feather, Fur & Fin” available for his fans to remix and then posting their submissions on his website.
We are preparing for the 4th edition of Carte Blanche Acadie!
Organized as part of Strategy Dance 2022, in partnership with the Association acadienne des artistes professionnel.le.s du Nouveau-Brunswick (AAAPNB) and ArtsLink NB, Carte Blanche Acadie offers a performance opportunity for dancers from New Brunswick and the Atlantic provinces, whether they are Francophone, Anglophone, First Nations or allophone.
Through this event, we hope to create strategies and develop the dance community together, since dance is an art form free of language barriers.
The 4th edition of Carte Blanche Acadie will take place on November 26th, 2022, at the Bernard-LeBlanc Hall at the Aberdeen Cultural Centre, Moncton, NB, at 8 p.m. The event will be followed the next day by a business meeting to discuss the development of the dance scene. This meeting will be conducted in both official languages, English and French, at the Aberdeen Cultural Centre.
This is a wonderful opportunity to come to Moncton for a weekend dedicated to the Art of Dance! Carte Blanche Acadie (November 26th, 8 PM-10 PM) The aim of Carte Blanche Acadie is to offer a platform adapted to the needs of dance artists during which they can present work. The maximum length of each presentation will be 10 minutes. Whether the project is in the research stage, in development or about to be completed, the only criteria to participate is to have something to share. Even improvisation is more than welcome.
You would only have to specify what you would like to show in the application form. The presence of peers and an informed audience will allow you to have feedback on your work whether it is vocal or sensory.
Presenting, sharing and discussing in an inclusive environment are the objectives of Carte Blanche. In addition to providing a platform to perform, we will be providing a video of your performance as well as photographs that you can use for grants and future applications. Each act will receive an honorarium. The money accumulated at the door (in the form of a voluntary contribution) will also be divided equally between the acts and given to the person/company who submitted the project.
As for the selection process, we would like to accept as many projects as possible, but if we do not have enough time, as we will only have 2 hours for the event, we will draw candidates by lottery. Preference will be given for artists from the Atlantic provinces.
The chosen artists will be responsible for covering their own travel and accommodation expenses. Nevertheless, we can supply a letter of invitation to those who wish to submit a travel grant application. It may also be possible to find housing among local artists.
Please fill out the attached application form here.
The deadline for submissions is Friday, September 9th, 2022.
We will let you know by the end of September if your application was successful.For any questions, please write to: carteblanche.acadie@gmail.com

The exhibition Les objets trouvés du paradis | Paradise Lost and Found will be presented from June 23 to October 30, 2022, at the Galerie d’art Louise-et-Reuben-Cohen. Organized by Carolina Reis addressing areas of knowledge conveyed by nature, the exhibition brings together the work of Christi Belcourt, Denis Taman Bradette, Laura Demers, Mariana Lafrance, Kaylee Meyer, Sylvie Pilotte and Laura St. Pierre.
The exhibition opening will be held on Thursday, June 23, at 5 PM, with some artists and the curator in attendance.
“Now that there is no place left on earth that is not contaminated by human activity, artists are revisiting the idea of paradise in their own way, and the term is taking on new meanings in our imagination.” Declares the exhibition’s curator, Carolina Reis. “Together, [the work of these seven artists] propose a diversity of dialogues with the environment and decentralized views of the place of human beings within the biosphere. […], these artists invite us to rethink the place of humans in their environment and to imagine different ways of reconstructing the paradises of the future with the remains of a fragmented nature.”
The exhibition will also be accompanied by a screening of films by Marjorie Beaucage, Katia Café-Fébrissy, and Thirza Cuthand, which will be held on September 29, at 8 PM, followed by a discussion. Other activities, such as a round-table discussion, online programming, and various creative workshops, will be shared throughout the course of the exhibition.
The gallery hours are from 9 AM to 4 PM, Monday to Friday, and 1 to 4 PM, Saturday and Sunday. Admission is free.
Many thanks to the Department or Tourism, Heritage and Culture of NB and the Ontario Arts Council. The curator recognizes the support of the curatorial incubator of l’Association des groupes en arts visuels francophones, Véronique Leblanc, Gentianne Bélanger and of Mother Earth for carrying our weight and keeping us alive.

Workshop offered in French by Jacinthe Loranger.
Although contemporary screen printing requires specialized equipment, it is not impossible to use this technique in simple and equally effective ways. Come and learn the basics of transferring images onto fabric or paper with a contemporary print artist. You will make your own stencils and monotypes and learn how to make your own silk screen.
Jacinthe Loranger is a multidisciplinary visual artist based in Montreal, Canada. She holds a master’s degree in visual and media arts from Concordia University in Print Media.Her practice revolves around screen printing and is deployed in different forms such as installation, sculpture and collage. Her work was showcased in numerous exhibitions across Canada and abroad like in recent years I have presented several exhibitions in gallery, including at the invisible dog art center (NY), Art in the Open (Charlottetown PEI) and she also participated in the public art project Images rémanentes in the City of Moncton NB. In 2022, she will be part of shows in Douro Printmaking biennial, Louise-et-Reuben-Cohen (Moncton, NB) and at Maison des arts de Laval (Laval, QC) .

On June 19th, DansEncorps will celebrate its 42nd artistic season!
After two years of hybrid events, the fun of live performance is here. The air we breathe is fresher and the 2022 recital aims to embody this. That’s why we’ve concocted two singular shows to promote the best of artistic experiences. The event will take place at the Capitol Theatre.
11am Show
The first show, at 11am, will last approximately 60 minutes and will feature children from 3 to 12 years old. A show guaranteed to bring smiles and joy from start to finish.
7pm Show
The longer show at 7pm will showcase the talents of our youth and adults who are passionate about dance. A variety of styles and creativity will be on display. You will also have the chance to see members of our pre-professional program in action as well as two graduates, Clara Gray and Daphnée McIntyre. These two young emerging dance artists are completing our pre-professional training program and we are very proud to present them in solo performances.
Tickets for the 42nd DansEncorps School Recital will be available as of June 1st at the Capitol Theatre box office.

The Binder Institute is a Pokémon card research chair founded in 2018 by Professor Samphire Green at Tamamushi University’s School of Art & Design, Celadon City. Although focused primarily on print matter, the Institute acts more broadly as a think tank for pokédemia (Pokémon academia) and occasionally hosts guest researchers such as Professor Djinn Proxy, adept of video game music composition.
“Bird[s] in [cyber]Space”
“I now realize that the anarchy of childhood – that which resists to the prejudice of the adult world – was always going to be key in my gaining access to my femininity, to my most fantastical desires. Today, I am a glamorous anarchist: I live out my transgendered Pokémon professor fantasy on Instagram, writing honest, heartfelt, and informed analysis of cards pulled from my (auto)institutionalized binder collection.
These self-same anarchist affinities are how Professor Djinn and I eventually came to meet; having succeeded in defying his classical training as a percussionist, Djinn dons an experimental practice in glitchy video game-inspired music as the perfect counterpoint to his emerging practice as an illustrator of hallucinogenic technicolour nightmares. Together, our goal was simple: to cross that line between societal expectation and personal desire; to feel weird and to make others feel weird; ‘to be frivolous, promiscuous, and irrelevant’, in Jack Halberstam’s words, and to ‘[run] the risk of not being taken seriously’. This was to be the hallucinogenic technicolour guts of our experiment. Now all we need is a test subject…”
– Prof. Samphire Green
This project is presented as part of the RE:FLUX Festival at the Imago Artist -Run Print Studio gallery in the Aberdeen Cultural Centre.
