Matt Bowness' Winged - The Guild

They're beautifully iridescent - and when they stop flapping - they make beautiful art. Karen Mair visited 'Winged' at The Guild and talked to artist Matt Bowness about turning beetle wings into dresses and prints.

Matt also runs Overman Jewellery & Art in Charlottetown by repurposing old pieces and watches. His show is on at The Guild until May 17th.

New Democratic Party Convention

New Democratic Party members on PEI gather this weekend for their convention. The party appears to be making some headway with the island electorate but still has a long way to go. Leader Mike Redmond will drop by the studio to talk about his experiences so far at the helm of the party... and how he's gearing up for the next election.

The party's annual convention is this Saturday, and the guest speaker is Lorraine Michael, Leader of the NDP in Newfoundland and Labrador and MHA for Signal Hill-Quidi Vidi.
