SUMMARY:Erhu to Cantopop:  Five Thousand Springs of Chinese Sound
DESCRIPTION:Step into the rich world of Chinese music through live performance\, storytelling\, instrument demonstrations\, and hands-on discovery. This immersive workshop explores the sounds and history of instruments such as the erhu\, pipa\, guzheng\, suona\, and sheng\, inviting audiences to experience the beauty\, depth\, and variety of Chinese music up close. \nInspired by the Dream Factory: Cantopop Mandopop 1980s to 2000s exhibition at the Chinese Canadian Museum\, the workshop also traces the path from traditional Chinese music to the rise of Cantopop. Along the way\, participants will explore the connection between language tones and music\, the development of Cantopop\, and the legacy of legendary composer Joseph Koo Ka-fai\, often celebrated as the Father of Cantopop. Your museum admission also includes access to the exhibition\, making it easy to enjoy both in one visit. \nThis event is open to music lovers\, curious newcomers\, cultural enthusiasts\, and anyone interested in Chinese music. It will be especially rewarding for composers interested in writing new music for Chinese instruments\, offering deeper insight into traditional Chinese musical aesthetics\, instrumental colour\, and creative possibilities for new composition. \nThe workshop also connects to VCME’s third Composer Commission Project\, which will support the creation of new works for Chinese instruments by selected composers from across Canada. \nMore info on the workshop: www.chinesemusicvancouver.com/erhu-to-cantopop

SUMMARY:Chelsey Grewar: The Wannabe Cowgirl Tour
DESCRIPTION:Chelsey Grewar is saddling up and taking herself on a stand-up tour through the wild west of Canada with The Wannabe Cowgirl Tour visiting Vancouver’s Little Mountain Gallery on April 10\, Calgary’s The Attic Bar & Stage on April 15\, and Edmonton’s Grindstone Theatre on April 18. With charm\, relatability\, and a bit of chaos\, Chelsey Grewar captivates audiences with self-deprecating jokes that feel like your bestie oversharing (in a good way). \nThe Wannabe Cowgirl Tour\, which received a 2025 CANCOM Comedy Grant from the Foundation of Canadian Comedy\, will put Chelsey’s prairie influenced comedy to the test where the real cowgirlies are. Chelsey is a rising star in Toronto’s comedy scene\, known for her storytelling and observational comedy such as revealing why being a twin isn’t always fun\, especially when you’re the weird one. Her comedy explores feminism\, generational divides\, sexuality\, navigating adult friendships\, bad luck with employment\, and – of course – horse girls.

SUMMARY:Agatha's Almanac Screening (VIFF Centre)
DESCRIPTION:The world may be racing forward\, but 90-year-old Agatha Bock is rooted in another rhythm that is grounded in heirloom seeds\, esoteric rituals\, and the meditative magic of living deliberately. \nAgatha’s Almanac is the latest immersive work from acclaimed multidisciplinary artist and filmmaker Amalie Atkins\, whose poetic sensibility elevates this documentary into a deeply textured cinematic experience. \nShot over six years by an all-woman crew on 16mm film\, Agatha’s Almanac quietly observes Agatha tending her ancestral Manitoba farm without a car\, cell phone\, or even running water. Her days are devoted to cultivating watermelon\, beans\, herbs\, and flowers\, and all entirely by hand. \nFor time go to website https://viff.org/

SUMMARY:Wildwoman
DESCRIPTION: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. The power and cruelty of the French Royal Court awakens Catherine’s own wild side\, and once she unleashes it\, no one is safe from her vengeful wrath.
