W’daub Awae: Speaking True a Kegedonce Press anthology
Edited by Warren Cariou
W’daub Awae: speaking true: a kegedonce anthology brings together some of Canada’s strongest and best loved voices on the aboriginal writing scene. It includes new writing by: Gregory Scofield, Richard Van Camp, Marilyn Dumont, Al Hunter, Joanne Arnott, Daniel Heath Justice and all your other favourite Kegedonce Press authors. Introduced and edited by the well-respected Warren Cariou, this anthology will become a classic in no time.
This anthology is a celebration of those extraordinary successes that Kegedonce has had since 1993, and of the pivotal role it has played in the recent history of Canada’s Aboriginal literature. But for me, W’daub Awae is equally a pointer toward the future, a sign of the incredible diversity and vividness and powerful language that we can look forward to from Kegedonce in the years to come. Each piece represented here is only one small part of the extraordinary work that all of these writers will continue to produce in the future. (excerpt from Warren Cariou’s intro to the collection)
Warren Cariou has written fiction and nonfiction about his home community in northwestern Saskatchewan, including Lake of the Prairies, which won the Drainie-Taylor Prize and was nominated for several other prizes. He teaches Aboriginal literature at the University of Manitoba where he also directs the Centre for Creative Writing and Oral Culture.

On Friday, August 15th 2008 at 1:30 pm Chapel Arts is hosting the official release of the publication Strathcona 2010: A Clear Vision for our Neighbourhood by The Strathcona Revitalization Committee.
This expression of Strathcona’s aspirations is a result of months of discussion by the voluntary citizen organizations which make up the Strathcona Revitalization Committee coalition.
This event will include a brief speech by Rick Archambault, SRC Chair, and the cutting of a cake, back-dropped by art work from Strathcona Elementary School illustrating how our children view Strathcona and an exhibition of Strathcona images.
To help us celebrate this occasion, we are inviting elected representatives and appointed officials from all levels of government, local residents, local business owners and their employees, and representatives of social service agencies.
This event is by invite only. For more info, please contact justanotherrick@shaw.ca.
New Art Exhibition running from Aug. 15 - Sept. 14, 2008
The future belongs to the forward thinkers. The impetus of this exhibition is to provide a platform for emerging contemporary artists with very little restriction in content and form. The only criterion for the work in this show is that all artwork being shown has an element of external forward thought. This would include any issue from content to construction - ideas translated from mind to medium that show an element of progressive thinking.
Curated by local artist Randy Grskovic, THE FUTURE BELONGS TO THE FEW OF US STILL WILLING TO GET OUR HANDS DIRTY is designed to be a commercial stepping stone for these local, young, un(der)represented artists who have already proven themselves to not only be sellable but also valid in contemporary art practices. The two floors of exhibition space at Chapel Arts will hold these progressive works, allowing for a show that encompasses a wide variety of media and form, from photographic installations to large format paintings.
Opening Reception: August 15, 2008 7pm-1am
Exhibition Runs: August 15 to September 14, 2008
Gallery Hours: Wed - Sat, 12pm - 6pm and Sundays 1pm - 4pm
