CONCERT: HENDRIKA – October 25, 2026 Doors Open 7:00 pm Music Starts 7:30 pm

Yukon folk-rock musician Hendrika will be live in concert at the Qu’Appelle Valley Centre for the Arts on Sunday, October 25 on the Home Routes Tour. Selina Heyligers-Hare (Hendrika) is a multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter who blends folk, alt-rock, bluegrass, jazz and indie roots into genre-bending original music. 

Bandcamp describes her this way, “Hendrika pushes the boundaries of modern music – intricate melodies with grounding folk roots, classic rock riffs and soaring vocals will leave you absolutely captivated.”
With a description like that, this sounds like a concert no music lover would dare miss! We look forward to seeing you on October 25 for a night of exceptional music.

CONCERT: AN EVENING WITH MARIE – NOVEMBER 14, 2026 Doors Open 7:00 pm Music Starts 7:30 pm

We are thrilled to announce a wonderful upcoming local showcase with singer-songwriter Marie Lerminiaux. Marie grew up on the prairies of Saskatchewan. Her craft as a singer-songwriter both in composing the music and writing the lyrics is mainly self-taught and her dedication comes through. Woven together with the skill of a natural storyteller, her songs express her truths and life experiences.

Special Note: We extend a heartfelt thank you to Marie, as half of the proceeds from her show will be donated back to the QVCA for providing a welcoming space for artists. We encourage everyone to come out for an enjoyable, intimate evening of original music!
