    Episode 51 - Arts Everywhere - "Later Life, Creative Life" with Bruce Dow

    This is the sixth in a special series entitled "Later Life, Creative Life", which explores what a creative life looks like in artists ages 60 and up. Bruce Dow has a story that feels will resonate with many artists who are entering the second chapter of their careers. During the pandemic, Bruce pivoted from being a celebrated, award-winning Broadway singer/actor to becoming a Registered Psychotherapist (CRPO), Registered Counselling Therapist (NSCCT), and Certified Psychospiritual Therapist. One of the most powerful themes from our conversation is that who you were in your 20s isn’t necessarily who you are now—and that change can be both challenging and profoundly freeing.

    Episode 50 - Arts Everywhere - "Later Life, Creative Life" with Greg Hargarten

    This is the sixth in a special series entitled "Later Life, Creative Life", which explores what a creative life looks like in artists ages 60 and up. Greg Hargarten is a Saskatoon based painter, musician, filmmaker and graphic artist. He is also a founding member of  "The Men Who Paint".  Greg never tires of talking about The Men Who Paint and their global travels, and with good reason.  As painters now in their senior years, it is an enviable position to be in when an artist can say that they make a living from their craft.  He can boast the same when it comes to his solo painting, and work as a musician.

    Episode 48 - Arts Everywhere - "Later Life, Creative Life" with Betsy Rosenwald

    This is the fourth in a special series entitled "Later Life, Creative Life", which explores what a creative life looks like in artists ages 60 and up. If this episode were to have a secondary title, it would be "The Emancipation of Betsy Rosenwald." Betsy's choice of the word "emancipation" profoundly reflects this statement. Based in Saskatoon, Betsy Rosenwald is the 2025 Artist-in-Residence at the Ukrainian Museum of Canada, making her the first Jewish artist to hold this prestigious title at the museum. Her latest exhibit, "To Understanding, Through Understanding" (January 29 – May 2, 2026), delves into her exploration of Ukrainian Jewish roots, complementing her longstanding awareness of her Russian Jewish heritage. This exhibit not only deepens her connection to her Jewish heritage but also resonates with her identity in a world marred by increasing antisemitism and political unrest. See links below for many of the female artists mentioned during this conversation.

    This is the first in a special series entitled "Later Life, Creative Life", which explores the triumphs and challenges artists in their senior years face.  For this episodes guest, some of these challenges have been blatantly expressed by others, proof that there is an important conversation to be had around agism in the arts.  David Lariviere is the artistic director of PavedArts in Saskatoon.  An artist in his own right, David shares his journey to where he finds himself today; in an artist-led environment where differences in age opens the door to a reciprocal exchange of ideas.
