SUMMARY:Khari Wendell McClelland Celebrating 20 Years of DCMF’s Songwriter-in-Residence Program
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, February 15\, 2025\nDënäkär Zho / KIAC Ballroom\nDoors at 7:30 PM\, Music at 8:00 PM \nTo buy tickets\, click here! \nIn 2025\, the Dawson City Music Festival (DCMF) will celebrate 20 years of its Songwriter-in-Residence program. To mark this milestone\, KIAC and DCMF have teamed up for a concert series that brings back some of the most beloved participants from the past two decades. \nThe second show in the series features a full-band performance by Khari Wendell McClelland from Vancouver (BC). Khari was DCMF’s 10th Songwriter-in-Residence in 2015. He made a lasting impression on the Dawson community\, organizing a choir that continued to perform together long after his residency. \nWe are excited to welcome Khari back to Dawson City for a weeklong mini-residency. Stay tuned for more details on how you can get involved beyond his performance on February 15th. \nABOUT KHARI WENDELL MCCLELLAND \nOriginally from Detroit\, Khari Wendell McClelland has become a darling on the Canadian music scene\, with critics praising his performances as a clever mix of soul and gospel. Khari’s songwriting crosses genres and generations\, joyfully invoking the spirit of his ancestors who straddled the US-Canadian border in efforts to escape slavery and discrimination. His music draws from this rich history\, integrating the rhythms and folklore of early African-Americans with contemporary sounds and stories of struggle. Recently\, Khari received critical acclaim for his Freedom Singer project\, recreating the music fugitive slaves carried on their journey north into Canada. Khari also performs with the Roots Gospel group The Sojourners. Whether on stage or in the studio\, Khari’s passion for community\, equality and justice is palpable\, as is his belief in the redemptive power of music. \nThanks to our funders and partners:\nCanada Council for the Arts | Government of Canada | Yukon Government | Park Canada | North Klondyke Highway Music Society

SUMMARY:Juan Ortiz-Apuy | TROPICANA Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:JUAN ORTIZ-APUY  |  TROPICANA February 13 – April 12\, 2025 ODD Gallery\, Dënäkär Zho |  KIAC Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in territory\, Dawson City\, Yukon \n\n\n\nOPENING RECEPTION & ARTIST TALK: Thursday\, February 13th at 7PM – 10PM\, Artist talk at 7:30PM – 8:30PM \n\n\n\nTROPICANA\n\n\n\nA GENUINE FORAY INTO THE WORLD OF OBJECTS\, THE YOUTH EXHIBITION TROPICANA SEEKS TO EXAMINE THE WAY WE CONSUME TODAY THE BETTER TO UNDERSTAND ITS FUTURE IMPACTS. \n\n\n\nWhen confronting the environmental crisis\, in which unbridled production of goods is threatening the diversity of the natural world\, it’s essential that we take an interest in how things are displayed\, commercialized and consumed\, whether in brick-and-mortar store windows or online. This youth exhibition\, specially designed for kids and teenagers aged 6 to 14\, casts a critical eye on modern consumer society and advertising aimed at children\, which often features animals\, colours\, sounds and shapes designed to appeal to them. For the occasion\, Montreal-based Costa Rican artist Juan Ortiz-Apuy has created a visual and sound environment allowing visitors to explore the language of advertising and its ability to act on us\, in sometimes unexpected ways. The artist based his research on new marketing strategies that have emerged in the social media era\, i.e.\, the phenomenon of “unboxing” and ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response) videos. Besides a guided tour\, children can take part in a workshop designed to awaken their senses\, creativity and critical thinking. Observation games to be completed with family members round out the experience. \n\n\n\nJuan Ortiz-Apuy\n\n\n\nCosta Rica–born Juan Ortiz-Apuy has lived and worked in Montreal since 2003. He is an assistant professor in the Department of Studio Arts at Concordia University. Working in his favoured techniques of collage and assemblage\, he makes art driven by thinking around consumer goods\, often employing humour to explore the advertising and media strategies associated with them. His works—which he presents in the form of multimedia installations—draw inspiration from design\, art history and pop culture. His work has been shown in several museums and art centres across Canada as well as abroad\, including the Fondation Phi pour l’art contemporain (Montreal)\, Birch Contemporary Gallery (Toronto)\, OPTICA\, centre d’art contemporain (Montréal)\, ARTSPACE (Peterborough)\, the Carleton University Art Gallery (Ottawa)\, the IKEA Museum (Älmhult\, Sweden)\, as well as at MOMENTA | Biennale de l’image in Montreal and Manif d’art 7 in Quebec City. In 2011 he was the beneficiary of the Halifax Regional Municipality Contemporary Visual Art Purchase Program. Upcoming projects include a solo show at Open Space (Victoria)\, and residencies at MASS MoCA (North Adams\, MA\, USA) and the Zentrum Für Keramik (Berlin). Juan Ortiz-Apuy holds a BFA from Concordia University\, where he now teaches\, along with a postgraduate diploma from the Glasgow School of Art and an MFA from NSCAD University. \n\n\n\n\n\nCrédit pour la tournée de Juan : \n\n\n\nLa circulation de Tropicana bénéficie du soutien financier du Conseil des arts du Canada et du Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec.

Anne befriends up-and-coming singer Neely O’Hara (Patty Duke)\, whose dynamic talent threatens aging star Helen Lawson (Joey Bishop) and beautiful but talentless actress Jennifer North (Sharon Tate).

SUMMARY:Videodrome:Cult Cinema at the Eldorado
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Sluice Box Lounge at the Eldorado Hotel for a screening of a some Canadian film wierdness. \nVideodrome\nDirector: David Cronenberg\n1983\, 87m \nWhen Max Renn goes looking for edgy new shows for his sleazy cable TV station\, he stumbles across the pirate broadcast of a hyper-violent torture show called Videodrome. As he struggles to unearth the origins of the program\, he embarks on a hallucinatory journey into a shadow world of right-wing conspiracies\, sadomasochistic sex games\, and bodily transformation. Starring James Woods and Deborah Harry in one of her first film roles\, Videodrome is one of writer/director David Cronenberg’s most original and provocative works\, fusing social commentary with shocking elements of sex and violence. With groundbreaking special effects makeup by Academy Award®-winner Rick Baker\, Videodrome has come to be regarded as one of the most influential and mind-bending science fiction films of the 1980s.

SUMMARY:Cult Cinema at the Eldorado
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a rejuvenation of our winter cult cinema screenings in the Sluice Box Lounge at the Eldorado Hotel. \nSit back\, have a beveridge and enjoy some weirdness from the other side of cinema! \n7:30 pm. \n \nOur first film is HAUSU (House) \n\n\nNobuhiko Ôbayashi\n\nJapan | 1977 | 88m | Japanese \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuckle up and be warned: there is and has never been anything quite like Nobuhiko Obayashi’s eye-popping\, jaw-dropping\, and senses-shattering exercise in unfettered cinematic delirium. Offended by her father’s imminent remarriage following her mother’s death\, teenage Gorgeous invites her six schoolmates (musical Melody\, gourmand Mac\, egghead Prof\, daydreaming Fantasy\, demure Sweet\, and high-kicking Kung Fu) to accompany her to her aunt’s country house for the weekend. Once ensconced in the mist-shrouded manor\, the girls find themselves plunged into a seething cauldron of supernatural shenanigans as it is revealed that the possessed dwelling has a taste (literally) for young flesh. Unleashing a perfect storm of self-consciously chintzy special effects\, Hausu takes excess to enthralling extremes.\n\n

SUMMARY:Muster Point Live Concert
DESCRIPTION:Co-Presented by Jazz Yukon\nAdmission by donation (at the door)\nDoors open – 7:30 / Music – 8:00\nFeaturing a short opening set by David Johnston III \nMuster Point is Yukon’s contemporary instrumental collective. The rotating lineup brings together artists with backgrounds in jazz\, classical\, rock\, hip hop\, and things in between. Featuring some of Whitehorse’s finest musicians\, Muster Point plays original music that blends and extends genres into sweeping journeys of groove. \n\n\nThe band grew out of a shared dream that live music is so much more than what can be rehearsed. Muster Point’s founding members bonded through Whitehorse’s professional breakdance scene; creating fully improvised music while reacting in realtime to the freestyle dance in front of them. These sacred hip-hop rituals tuned their minds to a different frequency and set the creative tone for Muster Point. Today\, the collective has grown to about ten artists\, with a core group of five that perform regularly. Muster Point are gearing up for the recording of an album\, and the return of their super fun\, highly anticipated weekly series at Baked Café\, this time with new guest artists and new original music. \nFeaturing: \nLogan Bennett (piano/synth/trumpet)\nWyatt Best (guitar)\nJake Paleczny (bass clarinet)\nRagn Royle (bass)\nMichel Vallières (percussion)\n\nGalen Pelley (drums) \nhttps://www.instagram.com/musterpoint_band/

SUMMARY:Begonia (live concert) at Dënäkär Zho / KIAC Ballroom
DESCRIPTION:Pegged as Canada’s breakout alt-diva\, Begonia has built a legion of fans online and at her legendary live shows. Her critically acclaimed discography includes Lady In Mind EP (2017)\, Fear (2019) and Powder Blue (2023). Among her accolades\, she has two JUNO nominations (2021\, 2024\, Adult Alternative Album of the Year)\, two Polaris Prize nominations\, multiple #1 songs on CBC Radio\, and was named one of NPR’s Artists You Need to Know. \nHer sophomore album\, Powder Blue emerged in early 2023 and confronts themes of sexuality\, self discovery\, acceptance and empowerment. The album was named one of CBC Music’s Best Canadian Albums of 2023 (#7) and was shortlisted for the 2023 Polaris Music Prize. Begonia’s live performance is world class. She has been playing sold out clubs and theatres in North America\, and recently supported indie-all-star\, Leith Ross\, on their European tour. \nHer vocal prowess has the power to absolutely floor an audience\, evidenced at her Polaris Gala performance. Riding a wave of momentum with a record number of people discovering Powder Blue\, Begonia’s newest EP\, Open Swim\, was released in July 2024 via Birthday Cake Records. Co-written and produced by Alexa Dirks and Marcus Paquin (The National\, The Weather Station\, Arcade Fire) along with contributions from her frequent collaborators and producer duo\, deadmen\, the EP is a project that “encompasses the feeling of working through conflict and the elation that can surface when you’re honest with others and ultimately yourself. \n“With a rich sound and unshakeable confidence\, Canadian-born Begonia is a force to be reckoned with.” – Wonderland Magazine (UK)\n—\nDoors open – 7:30 / Music – 8:00\n$27 General / $25 KIAC Members / $18 Youth / Student / Accessible\n$30 at the door \nTickets on sale here! \nTo volunteer\, click here! \n–\nThank you to our funders:\nGovernment of Canada\nYukon Government

SUMMARY:Nico Paulo with guest Jared Klok at Dënäkär Zho / KIAC Ballroom
DESCRIPTION:Nico Paulo\nwith guest Jared Klok \nThursday\, October 17\nDënäkär Zho / KIAC Ballroom\nDoors at 7:30\, Music at 8:00 \nTickets on sale HERE!\n$25 General Admission\n$23 KIAC Members\n$15 Youth / SOVA students / Accessible\n$30 at the door \nTo volunteer\, click here! \nNico Paulo is a Portuguese/Canadian songwriter\, performer\, and visual artist. She moved to Canada in 2014 to pursue her career\, originally setting down roots in the vibrant Toronto arts community\, and eventually moved east to become an essential part of Newfoundland’s celebrated music scene. Paulo’s highly anticipated\, self-titled debut LP\, which arrived in spring 2023\, is a melodically dynamic\, heart-baring collection that finds her exploring the interconnected nature of relationships and the flow of time in lush\, sophisticated pop arrangements. The album’s textures come courtesy of production by Joshua Van Tassel (Villages\, Fortunate Ones) and Tim Baker (Hey Rosetta!). \nPaulo released her debut single\, the wistful “Please Don’t Forget\,” in 2019. Her debut EP\, Wave Call\, arrived in 2020\, featuring contributions from musicians Bravo Kilo\, Evan J Cartwright\, Kwame Appiah-Kubi\, and Tim Baker\, with production and engineering handled by David Gavan Baxter. She toured the EP in Europe in 2020\, making stops in Portugal\, the UK\, Ireland\, France\, and Germany. Her latest releases—the Live at First Light EP recorded for the Lawnya Vawnya Artist Residency and a cover of José Afonso’s Portuguese folk song “O Cavaleiro e o Anjo”—were both recorded in Paulo’s adopted hometown of St. John’s\, and include appearances by local musicians Tim Baker\, Adam Hogan\, Steve Maloney\, and Mary B. Waldram. \n“Your new favorite vocalist lives in Newfoundland” – MTV\n“Nico Paulo has a knack for transmuting the mundane motions of daily life into grand\, wistful reveries.” – The FADER \n—\nThanks to our funders: Government of Canada\, Yukon Government\nSpecial thanks to our show sponsors Air North\, Yukon’s Airline and Bombay Peggy’s
