SUMMARY:Port Moody Film Society presents: Tampopo
DESCRIPTION:Port Moody Film Society presents:\nTampopo\nFriday\, April 11\, 2025 at 7:30pm \nCost: $5.00 + $5.00 Annual Membership \nIn this very Japanese paean to the joys of food\, trucker Goro rides into town like a modern Shane to help Tampopo\, the owner of a struggling diner. The movie is constructed as a series of episodes along the route to the perfect noodle restaurant. The social critique in “Tampopo” animates every scene\, and it accounts for why — even in an era of celebrity chefs\, food-porn Instagram accounts and cookery-as-contact-sport reality shows — the movie has lost none of its power to revivify the senses\, not least of all one’s sense of humor. This is a very funny movie. \nComedy/Satire\nRuntime 1 hour 54 minutes\nJapan\n1985\nRated 14A \nFor more info about the Port Moody Film Society\, click here.

SUMMARY:EVERGREEN THEATRE SERIES - The Knitting Pilgrim
DESCRIPTION:Dates:\nTUE 08 APR\n7:30 PM – 9:30 PM \nWED 09 APR\n7:30 PM – 9:30 PM \nTHU 10 APR\n7:30 PM – 9:30 PM \nFRI 11 APR\n7:30 PM – 9:30 PM \nSAT 12 APR\n3:00 PM – 5:00 PM \nSAT 12 APR\n7:30 PM – 9:30 PM \n\nThe Knitting Pilgrim\nby Kirk Dunn\n\nThe Knitting Pilgrim\, featuring actor and knitter Kirk Dunn\, is a multidisciplinary one-man show that combines personal storytelling\, image projection\, and three huge knitted panels that look like stained glass windows\, to explore the connection amongst the Abrahamic faiths: Judaism\, Christianity and Islam. The play recounts Kirk’s fifteen-year artistic and spiritual journey of hand-knitting the ambitious project\, and looks at why people struggle to get along today\, the meaning of art\, the hell of grant-writing and the power of love to overcome major obstacles (and minor mishaps). \nABOUT THE ARTIST \nIn 2003\, Kirk was awarded a significant Chalmers Foundation Fellowship through the Ontario Arts Council in support of Stitched Glass\, an installation of 5.5’ x 8’ tapestry panels\, knit in the style of stained glass. The work explores the commonalities and conflicts of the three Abrahamic faiths: Judaism\, Christianity and Islam. Kirk’s background as a PK – a preacher’s kid – inspired his interest in religion\, spirituality\, and interfaith empathy. With Stitched Glass\, he found a way to combine both his faith and textile interests. \nKirk could not have foreseen the scope of the work. It took 15 years of research\, design and knitting\, to finally complete all three tapestries. But then the question became\, how to share the installation with audiences so that it could do more than just sit in a gallery? Kirk’s profound desire was to use Stitched Glass to create an opportunity for interfaith dialogue. In 2018\, Kirk and his wife\, Claire Ross Dunn\, co-wrote The Knitting Pilgrim\, a multidisciplinary one-person theatrical experience that uses storytelling\, image projection and the Stitched Glass panels – collectively over 90 pounds of knitting – as its set. \nDirected by Jennifer Tarver\, and performed by Kirk\, the show recounts Kirk’s artistic and spiritual journey of hand-knitting the giant project\, and his hope to contribute to the vital conversation about xenophobia\, anti-Semitism and Islamophobia\, dealing with internal and external strife\, and fear of the other. \nThe show\, produced by Ergo Arts Theatre\, premiered at the Aga Khan Museum’s Auditorium in May\, 2019 and has already toured Ontario for 49 shows. It was given 6 out of 5 stars by CFMU Hamilton\, 5 out of 5 stars by Mooney on Theatre\, and was named a Critic’s Fringe Pick in Toronto\, Ottawa and Hamilton\, as well as One of ‘Top Ten Shows to See in May 2019’ by NOW Magazine. It tells the story of a journey that you need to experience. \n\nSINGLE TICKETS ON SALE:\nAdults: $47 | Seniors: $40 | Students: $16\nSave 20% with a Theatre Series subscription! \nBOX OFFICE: 604.927.6555 | Open Monday – Saturday\, 12 – 5PM

SUMMARY:Public Art in Public Space Public Talk with Dr. Tatiana Mellema
DESCRIPTION:In this informative and free public talk\, Dr. Tatiana Mellema will discuss the important relationships that exist between art and public space. The discussion will also introduce the various processes by which public art finds its way into the public landscapes of our cities with specific reference to the role that municipalities play. Dr. Mellema will also consider the dominance of private development in public art programs today and the role that art plays in the increasing financialization and privatization of public space. \nDr. Tatiana Mellema is Curator of Outdoor Art at the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery and holds a PhD in Art History from the University of British Columbia. Through her former position in Public Art at the City of Vancouver she realised major public art commissions such as “Weekend Chime” (2021) by Brady Cranfield\, “A Constellation of Remediation” (2021) by T’uy’t’tanat-Cease Wyss and Anne Riley\, and “Saltwater City Vancouver/鹹水埠温哥华” (2020) by Paul Wong. In addition to working in public art\, Mellema is a sessional Lecturer at Emily Carr University of Art + Design and has previously worked in curatorial and educational programming at the Vancouver Art Gallery\, Illingworth Kerr Gallery\, The Banff Centre\, The Power Plant\, and the National Gallery of Canada. \nThis talk is presented as part of ArtsConnect’s Public Walks\, Public Spaces\, Public Arts\, Public Cities program. The program includes a series series of related discussions on the role and nature of public art in the Tri-Cities lead by a diverse collection of people in all forms of art\, architecture\, urban planning focussing on questions from just what is it that makes a space public to what place does public art have in public conversations about the complex nature of a community’s public life? Our next program includes Jane’s Walks that will take place on 3 May 2025 in Port Coquitlam\, Coquitlam and Port Moody. \nArtsConnect gratefully acknowledges the support of the City of Port Coquitlam Community Cultural Development (CCD) Investment Program and the Village of Anmore.

SUMMARY:PIANO HEIST
DESCRIPTION:PIANO HEIST\nNico Rhodes & Patrick Courtin\n\nLifelong friends and colleagues Rhodes and Courtin\, shocked and appalled by the realization that piano just isn’t cool anymore\, set off on a divine quest to redeem the keyboard and reinstate its reputation as the greatest instrument of ALL TIME! Armed with the music of the greatest composers\, songwriters and performers of the past 300 years\, and the technology of the 21st century\, Nico and Patrick deliver everything from classical piano raptures to bombastic boogie woogie\, romantic piano ballads to 80’s keyboard synth battles in Piano Heist! What ensues is a mishmash of theatrical wonder\, comedy\, audience participation\, heartfelt stories\, a pinch of history\, and a world of musical madness. \n  \nABOUT THE ARTISTS\nNICO RHODES is a genre jumping\, multilingual musician who collaborates with other artists and artforms to experience and explore music in as many styles as possible. Growing up touring around the globe surrounded by artists and the world of theatre – he is equally comfortable playing jazz\, classical\, funk or roots music\, orchestrating a symphony\, writing musicals\, and conducting choirs. He begins his day with an expresso and practicing his Japanese\, the language he is currently embracing. Nico Rhodes is one of the most in demand young arranger/musical directors in Canada\, with 40 stage musicals to his credit. He’s written 400 original compositions\, four original musicals and arranged two symphonic pops concerts. He’s been nominated for two Jessie and five Ovation Awards and in 2019 was honoured with Nanaimo’s Emerging Cultural Leader Award. He composes for stage\, screen\, and media\, collaborates with multiple choirs\, plays with several jazz trios and tours in a duo with his mother\, renowned chanteuse Joelle Rabu. In 2022 Nico produced a series of four multi-artist multi-genre concerts entitled Chapters for The Port Theatre in Nanaimo B.C. \nPATRICK COURTIN is first and foremost a pianist and he is a multi-instrumentalist\, composer\, arranger\, music director and teacher. From his first professional show accompanying a choir at the age of 14\, Patrick has been a career musician. He is classically trained (Royal Conservatory of Music) and completed grade 10 by the age of 17. He then went on to complete a Bachelor’s Degree of Music in Jazz Studies at Vancouver Island University. Since graduating\, Patrick has directed musical theatre productions\, played in recording sessions\, created music for film+TV\, and toured across Canada\, the United States and China.

SUMMARY:Solo Art Exhibition: Raha Studio x Brave Brewery
DESCRIPTION:We are so excited to announce a one-night-only collaboration between Raha Studio and Brave Brewery\, celebrating our first solo exhibition!\n\n\nWhen we thought about art\, we didn’t just want people to look at it—we wanted them to feel it. We wanted each piece to stir something within\, to spark an internal experience. And beyond that\, we wanted art to be something you could engage with—to touch\, to play with\, to share stories through.\n\n\nThis exhibition is more than just a showcase; it’s an invitation.

SUMMARY:The Paperboys - Inlet Theatre Music Series
DESCRIPTION:The Paperboys – Inlet Theatre Music Series \nGet ready for a night of foot-stomping tunes with The Paperboys at the Inlet Theatre! This in-person event promises to deliver high-energy music that will have you dancing in your seat. Don’t miss out on this chance to experience their unique blend of Celtic\, Bluegrass\, and Latin sounds live. Grab your friends and make it a night to remember at the Inlet Theatre Music Series! \nWhen you think of Canadian music\, who are the first contemporary artists that come to mind? Is it a globe-touring sextet that\, in a single set\, can be counted on to stomp through Celtic reels\, traditional Mexican folk\, fiddle tunes\, New Orleans brass band music\, classic pop songcraft\, bluegrass\, and even a philosophical waltz or two\, before bringing it all home with a Latino/West African singalong? I didn’t think so. Is it a fearless\, freewheeling band sometimes referred to as the “Los Lobos of Canada\,” veterans of an estimated 4\,300 shows since the band’s 1992 formation? What if I told you that this band doesn’t just exist—they flourish\, and have been converting full concert halls of indifferent strangers into devoted fans for the last 30 years? The name of this musical collective is The Paperboys. They are a Canadian treasure. \nThe heart of The Paperboys is a trio of gifted songwriters and musicians: Founder Tom Landa\, a fedora-hatted vocalist/guitarist/bandleader who immigrated from Mexico to Canada in his teens; Kalissa Landa\, a lifelong fiddler/vocalist with a preternatural command of melody; and Spirit of the West’s flautist/guitarist/vocalist Geoffrey Kelly\, already a Canadian musical icon when he hopped on the P’boys bus in 1997. Though by no means a jam band\, The Paperboys reinvent their show every time they step onstage. Once the band agrees on the opening song\, there is no set list. The song finishes\, the crowd reacts\, Landa reads the room\, and the journey begins. Every night. The world has changed seismically since 1992\, but The Paperboys fan base has stuck with the band\, and grown. “It goes beyond perseverance\,” Landa says about the band’s legacy\, “and into some kind of connectivity and resonance we have with people. We’ve created a community.” \nThough best known for their live show\, The Paperboys also have another ace up their sleeve: A deep and impressive discography. The band has released 10 recordings—including the Juno Award-winning Molinos—receiving accolades from MOJO Magazine and Roots Magazine along the way. They’ve been two-time recipients of the West Coast Music Award\, composed scores for two films\, and been nominated for a Leo Award for best original song in the Hong Kong/Canada film release\, Lunch With Charles. Although perennially adored and praised by alternative media and national radio networks NPR and CBC\, commercial success has eluded the band. Undaunted\, The Paperboys have kept in perpetual motion\, building a cult following through the impact of its incendiary live show and proud DIY spirit.
