The Manitoba Arts Network Showcase is on the way, October 20th to 23rd. The Network is an important resource for performers in Manitoba, and for our communities. The organization began in 1988, and now has developed a theme, "connecting creativity". The Network is devoted to connecting artists with communities and vice-versa.

Every October the Manitoba Arts Network puts on the Manitoba Showcase – a weekend-long event hosted in a different community each year. The Showcase features a number of performances and exhibitions from performing, visual and literary artists hoping to tour Manitoba under the Arts Network’s block-booking tour program.

This morning we heard from Performing Arts Coordinator with the Manitoba Arts Network, Lexi Moscovitch.

And here's a look at who is on the showcase line-up for the weekend:
