SUMMARY:Wildwoman
DESCRIPTION:March 26 – April 4\nWildwoman\nGateway Theatre\n6500 Gilbert Road\nA Gateway Theatre and Alberta Theatre Projects Production. A seductively funny\, daring twist on regal history. In Wildwoman\, we follow the story of Catherine de Medici\, the young\, newlywed of King Henry II of France\, who thinks her life at court will be a fascinating forum of political discourse. Instead\, the palace is a cruel and disturbing place where her singular function is to be a baby-making machine for male heirs. Even the other women at her side\, a scheming lady-in-waiting and the king’s power-hungry mistress\, seem to mostly fend for themselves. The only kinship she finds is with the paperback-romance hot\, head-to-toe hair wildman kept in the dungeon as one of the king’s collection of caged oddities. His friendly and feral presence gradually awakens Catherine’s own wild side\, and once she unleashes it\, no one is safe from her vengeful wrath.\nWebsite: https://www.gatewaytheatre.com/events/wildwoman/

SUMMARY:Speaker Series - Resisting Remoteness: Connecting History\, Design\, and Comics in the Study of Northeast India
DESCRIPTION:March 30\, 12pm-1pm\nSpeaker Series – Resisting Remoteness: Connecting History\, Design\, and Comics in the Study of Northeast India\nOnline\nIndia’s Northeast is often stereotyped as “remote”—cut off from dynamic and global historical processes happening elsewhere. This presentation challenges the myth of Northeast India’s isolation by exploring the connected history of a long-forgotten Northeast Indian labour unit during the First World War. But it does so by challenging simultaneously the isolation of scholarly disciplines at KPU. We present a work-in-progress—a story told in comics form—that brings together faculty and student experts across KPU\, from fields as diverse as the Digital Humanities\, Fine Arts\, History\, Design\, and 3D Printing.\nWebsite: https://www.kpu.ca/arts/speakerseries

SUMMARY:Exhibition – Keely-O’Brien: Secret Ingredients
DESCRIPTION:April 1 – March 1 2027\nExhibition – Keely-O’Brien: Secret Ingredients\nRichmond-Brighouse Skytrain Station\nSecret Ingredients began as a call by the artist for the public to submit messages they found difficult to express directly to someone in their life\, but felt ready to share. These messages were transformed into decorated cakes and delivered to the intended recipients as an edible form of communication. Exhibited now as a series of photographs at the Canada Line’s Richmond-Brighouse Station\, they become an unexpected moment of reflection during a commute.\nWebsite: https://www.richmondartgallery.org/secret-ingredients

DESCRIPTION:April 1 – March 1 2027\nExhibition – Sylvan Hamburger: Rewilding (Autumn & Spring)\nAberdeen Skytrain Station\nThis installation at Aberdeen Station is part of an ongoing project by the artist in response to the region’s changing built environment.
