Last week I got together at Atelier Wooden Apples with Geeta Nadkarni from the CBC. We shot 2 segments for her feature Be Green, which airs twice a week on the six o’clock news. Geeta also has a blog for Be Green on the CBC website, with additional information and access to archived video segments. […]
I just got back from a great interview with Patti Schmidt, who is intense and awesome, for a piece that will air on CBC on Saturday April 12, sometime between 5 and 6. She asked me about the name Indyish and I got all wordy rambly as I do, and brought up Jim Munroe’s question: […]

Well now someone has done gone and made a documentary of […]
If you were listening to CBC Montreal yesterday you heard Risa talking about craft sales, and I believe she mentioned this one in particular. It’s Hotcakes!
Heyyy artist, are you going to be selling your goods at Hotcakes? Use the comments to let Indyish readers know!
Last week I had the privilege to attend a stunning choral concert at the Christ Church Cathedral in good ol’ downtown Mount Real. Lead by artistic director Iwan Edwards, the Concerto Della Donna presented their Give Thanks to Music program to a packed house and created such a lovely hush over the church pews you […]
