Home Routes Online Concerts!
Hello everyone,
Below is an email from Tim Osmond of Home Routes. I encourage you to check out the concerts, especially those from the artists that were going to be a part of our series, James Gordon and Annie Lou.
Tim's email will give you all of the info you need! (I assume the links below will work, but if not, search for home routes, and the info is on their website and facebook pages).
We will miss having the gallery full of concert goers, and look forward to seeing you all again soon.
Take care,
Kristin Teetaert
HOME ROUTES / CHEMIN CHEZ NOUS PRESENTS ONLINE “HOUSE CONCERTS” BEGINNING MARCH 21
HOUSE CONCERTS FROM OUR LIVING ROOM TO YOURS DURING THE COVID-19 CRISIS
It’s in the news release below, but here is the link to our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/homeroutes/
[Winnipeg, March 20, 2020] Home Routes/ Chemin Chez Nous is keeping the music alive by presenting our Season 13 Artists’ concerts online, via Facebook live and YouTube, in place of the previously scheduled tours. Having to cancel the balance of our Season 13 tours due to COVID-19 left our artists, hosts and patrons wondering what we could do to continue to support and entertain, so we decided to bring the artists digitally to our patrons and to an even larger audience, instead of canceling the shows.
“To support artists and bring fresh entertainment to folks during this time was an obvious win/win, and doing live streaming concerts has been something we have been talking about for a while, so we decided that this was the perfect time to launch it,” says Artistic Director Tim Osmond. “Rick Fines was one of our pioneering artists in our very first season in 2007, so it’s only fitting that he kick off our online version too!”
Instead of touring from house to house, we will present an artist nightly on Home Routes / Chemin Chez Nous Facebook page - presenting a National Folk Festival online. Audiences will be treated to performers who were previously booked by Home Routes to tour rural and urban areas of Canada, and to date we have confirmed the schedule until Apr 1st. Additional programming is being confirmed to continue these shows beyond the Apr 1 date, and will be announced as schedules are finalized. The schedule of performers is below, all shows start at 8pm CT, and run for 30 minutes.So gather your family, your pizza, your storm chips and get ready to enjoy an evening of Canadian Folk music and stories, from our home, to yours.
For financial support in these difficult times, our performers will be sharing a ‘tip jar” during their live concert, so viewers can “pay what they want.” By adding this virtual tip jar it will be easy for anyone to support. Be the first to be notified of our shows and live concerts by “liking” our facebook page, here https://www.facebook.com/homeroutes/

Class Fee $85.00
Participants will create their very own one-of-a-kind journal or sketchbook using the buttonhole stitch method, which is a variation on a long stitch binding. It's a beautiful book structure that is great for beginners and more advanced bookbinding students and offers many options for customization and creativity. The book structure opens completely flat, making it perfect for sketching, writing, or journaling. It uses no glue and features an exposed spine and threads that run along the outside of the cover. Journals will include up-cycled linen bookcloth covers, decorative paper interiors, linen thread, and acid-free high quality writing/drawing paper.
Robin Canham has been making books for 15 years. She has taken an extensive amount of bookbinding courses organized by the Canadian Bookbinders and Book Artists Guild (CBBAG) and was the CBBAG Sask Chapter Liaison for 12 years before currently working on the CBBAG National Board.

It is all about the wax! Using their own images participants will learn to let the wax do the work of creating texture on Ginwashi paper. Adding layers of wax and watercolour (no watercolour skills required) we will watch your images come to life. Ironing the wax off at the end will reveal your finished batiks.
In 2012 Paige Mortensen came across a tutorial about how to watercolour batik and worked through it. Since then she has been fascinated by the process and it has become her focus. Paige Is a juried member of the Saskatchewan Craft Council, the Artsits’ Workshop group in Saskatoon and in 2018-19 was selected as a participant in the CARFAC Mentorship program.
