SUMMARY:Revival: Printmaking in Nunavik (2014–2019)
DESCRIPTION:Revival echoes the beginnings of stonecut printing in Puvirnituq in 1961\, and bears witness to the recent resurgence of this art. Lyne Bastien and Maggie Napartuk have made this possible through traveling workshops offered in communities across Nunavik since 2014. Puvirnituq prints were simple\, unadorned depictions of animals and scenes belonging to traditional Inuit imagery. Now\, sixty years later\, Inuit artists continue to demonstrate a profound desire to keep their culture alive through this art form. Revival gives us a glimpse into the many wonders and challenges of their world. This touring exhibition is presented in collaboration with the Avataq Cultural Institute\, supported by the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec as well as the Makivik Corporation.

SUMMARY:Sébastien Gaudette – Ephemeral Language
DESCRIPTION:Sébastien Gaudette’s artistic practice centres on paper — a medium he explores through sculpture\, installation and drawing. His approach creates a graphic dialogue where the gesture leaves only the imprint of movement\, evolving gradually into increasingly complex forms. In doing so\, he challenges the materiality of paper and transforms our perception of it. Crumpled\, folded or torn\, the paper reflects the creative process and becomes the narrative thread that guides his work. \nThe exhibition unfolds like a striking mise-en-scène\, where monumental paper constructions intertwine with metal sculptures and drawings. These temporary installations are assembled directly on-site\, allowing them to integrate with the space they inhabit. The opening takes place April 17 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.\, in a joint opening with the 44.4 Mother/Artist Collective at City Hall Art Gallery.

SUMMARY:I Hate Hamlet by Paul Rudnick
DESCRIPTION:Set in John Barrymore’s untouched 1930s-era apartment in New York City\, I Hate Hamlet follows television star Andrew Rally as he wrestles with the challenge of playing the role of Hamlet on stage. \nAlready facing pressure from the weight of Shakespeare’s iconic character\, Andrew also finds himself clashing with a girlfriend committed to chastity — and unexpectedly hosting the ghost of John Barrymore\, summoned during a séance led by a well-meaning but unqualified friend. \nThis clever and comedic play explores the timeless tug-of-war between ambition\, legacy and love.

SUMMARY:And Then There Were None
DESCRIPTION:Ten strangers are mysteriously summoned to a remote island. Bound by their shared dark secrets\, they soon realize they have been condemned to death. Trapped by a violent storm\, the guests are killed one by one\, each demise eerily following the lines of a sinister nursery rhyme. \nThis chilling stage adaptation\, penned by Dame Agatha Christie herself\, is based on her world-renowned novel—the best-selling mystery of all time. \nDescribed as “a dark\, twisted tale: a tribute to the author’s genius” by Review Hub and “certainly one of Christie’s cleverest mysteries” by WhatsOnStage\, this gripping whodunit promises suspense and intrigue from start to finish. \nPlease note: this performance contains scenes of violence.

This popular annual event features massive tulip displays\, family fun and more.  \nOver 11 days each May\, the Canadian Tulip Festival celebrates the seasonal flower’s beauty and its historic ties to Canada’s capital. The outdoor event takes place at Commissioners Park\, where over 300\,000 tulips bloom alongside the Rideau Canal’s picturesque Dows Lake. Access to the site and select programming is free!  \nTulips (day and night)\, kids fun and souvenirs\nTake photos and selfies amongst the dozens of multicoloured garden beds; visit the heritage display to learn about the historic gift of tulips which led to the festival’s creation; shop for fresh cut flowers\, crafts\, art and more at the tulip boutique; take the kids to the Tulip Town activity area; and enjoy lit garden beds and a blacklight boardwalk experience after dark.  \nTours\, workshops and movie\nEnjoy a Self-Guided Legacy Tour that conveniently uses QR codes. Additional free programming includes daily outdoor movies at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.\, as well as a new sound and light show every evening on the blacklight boardwalk at 9:15 p.m.    \nRoyal roots \nThe festival began with a special gift. The Royal Family of the Kingdom of the Netherlands took refuge in Ottawa during the Second World War\, and Her Royal Highness\, Princess Margriet was born here in 1943. Two years later\, Canadian troops played a key role in liberating the Netherlands. In gratitude\, the Dutch government has sent Canada a gift of tulip bulbs every year since 1945\, inspiring what has become the Canadian Tulip Festival.
