How Manitoba’s arts scene got its groove back
Update: 2025-11-21
Description
In October, the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra announced it had reached an operating surplus for the first time in five years.
It’s been a struggle for Manitoba arts organizations in the five years since the pandemic, many of whom have seen years of deficits, made programming changes, petitioned governments for more funding and appealed to audiences to come back.
And finally, they’re starting to see some light at the end of the tunnel.
WSO executive director Angela Birdsell talks about navigating post-pandemic challenges, while Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre artistic director Kelly Thornton explains how the organization is catering to audiences' changing needs.
