"Every Brilliant Thing" IMPACT!
Burnt Thicket Theatre Company has been on a lengthy OSAC tour this season with “Every Brilliant Thing”. This important piece of theatre takes a look at a very serious subject with grace and humour, featuring actor Elizabeth Nepjuk.
At a recent stop at the Dekker Centre in North Battleford, General Manager Kali Weber asked Elizabeth about touring rural Saskatchewan and what she has been hearing at the talkback sessions. This video shows the impact this tour has had on audiences and the company. VIEW HERE
In Memoriam of Nancy Carlson
The Outlook and District Arts Council is saddened to announce the death of Nancy Carlson on December 27, 2024, at the fine age of 96.
Nancy was a founding member of our council in 1984 and remained a member all these years. She held many positions on the board; her specialty was, however, all things food-related, in which she was commander-in-chief. She loved to attend Showcase; her first was Prince Albert in 1986, and her last was in 2019.
She received an OSAC Volunteer Recognition award in 2011. Nancy will be missed by our board and the community of Outlook.

Canada is Live Music
In an effort to meaningfully aid in the support of a robust Canadian response to the trade crisis, the Canada Live Music Association (CLMA) has launched a public awareness campaign, #CanadaIsLiveMusic .
In the face of uncertainty, rapid change, and new opportunities, live music offers a powerful tool to inspire solidarity and national pride—alongside its undeniable economic, social, and cultural impacts.
Intended to emphasize the power and potential of live music activity generated by our nation's live music companies and organizations, #CanadaIsLiveMusic is a clear and simple sentiment meant to amplify the deep connection between live music, Canada, and its fans—both domestic and international.
It underscores our unique ability to create significant economic impact, while bringing people and communities together through music made by our incredible artists.
