The Steinbach Arts Council (SAC) is striking a harmonious chord this 2025 season with a concert series offering something for everyone.
Tara Schellenberg, performing arts coordinator at SAC, notes they have new and old talent, creating an exciting concert-going experience.
A mixed and musical bag
Schellenberg says some familiar faces will return this season, like the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra and the Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre. She notes new artists will also join the lineup.
“We've got a great lineup of concerts coming up,” she notes.
Ian Sherwood: East Coast Folk/Pop
Natural-born storyteller and gifted musician, Ian Sherwood, creates an intimate atmosphere by blending folk and pop melodies.
“A Canadian Folk Music Award Winner bringing his East Coast charm.”
Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre (MTC): Hockey Mom, Hockey Dad
The comedic tale follows a single mom and a single dad who meet during the hockey season.
“It’s actually based on a true story, the playwright saw this actually happening at his son’s hockey team.”

This dynamic duo brings their artistic vision to life, delivering unforgettable musical performances on strings and keys.
