On The Go CBC

An art exhibition entitled "Ni'n A'tugwaqan: My Story" opens Friday in Grand Falls-Windsor. We hear from the two women who collaborated on it... a St. John's artist and a Mi'kmaq elder from Exploits River. (Krissy Holmes with Jennifer Young and Qalipu member Marie Eastman)

There are more mouths to feed in Happy Valley-Goose Bay as evacuees from Churchill Falls arrive...and the Salvation Army is stepping up to help. We hear about the food truck they've set up and what they're cooking up, and we also hear from one of the evacuees at the town's YMCA. (Guest-host Martin Jones with Major Byron Keane; CBC/Radio-Canada's Patrick Butler with Beverly Bennett)

The first funeral co-operative will soon be up and running in this province, with a public meeting held about it in Carbonear today. We reach two members of the Funeral Cooperatives Network of Quebec to find out how the meeting went... and how the co-op could cut funeral costs for members. (Martin Jones with steering committee and general manager Corey Jordan and David Emond, director of operations)

We head down to the big blue tent at Quidi Vidi Lake to check out the vibe as the Iceberg Alley Performance Tent gets set to kick off its 2024 festival. (The CBC's Arlette Lazarenko with festival producer Shawn Basha; Arlette Lazarenko with local band With Violet)

The circus is in town... but don't expect lions and tightrope walkers. This one has a hair aerialist and a pizza juggler who's eight months pregnant. We go behind-the-scenes of the contemporary comedy circus Off Balance with the show's creator and hair aerialist. (Martin Jones with Anahareo Doelle and Ariel Cronin)

We have heard many unfortunate stories of musicians on tour arriving at their destination with damaged instruments. One local band appeals to Air Canada to "do better." (Martin Jones with Mark Manning of Rum Ragged)
