Rheostatics: Live on Stage at the Original

SOLD OUT!

Ever bound for ragged glory, Rheostatics occupy a unique place in the Canadian music landscape, pulled together and apart for nearly forty years. Finding grace in the reality of endurance, Rheostatics show us a special type of longevity, through upheaval, personal (and personnel) change, and a basic refusal to play the game in any way, shape or form, stretched over decades.

Join us, for what will be a very special evening, as we welcome the Rheostatics back to the Original stage! This show --a 20th anniversary of the last time the Rheostatics played the Original-- is guaranteed to sell out quickly. [This show is SOLD OUT]

Exhibition on Screen: Easter in Art

The story of Christ’s death and resurrection has dominated western culture for the past 2000 years. It is perhaps the most significant historical event of all time, as recounted by the gospels but, equally, as depicted by the greatest artists in history.
