Born in Whitehorse, Yukon, in 1977, then raised between Snow Lake, MB and Vancouver, BC has given Lars Stoltz a truly unique outlook on life and what is important within. As an Indigenous artist from Opaskwayak Cree Nation, Art is his passion. In 2012, Lars had the ingenuity to pick up a butterknife and start making intricate wood burnings with it as he lived on Vancouver Island.

The desire to help his family has brought him back to Manitoba, where he continues to create works that inspire others to seek their own inner artist. During his career, Lars has created customized works for many celebrities and famous artists, and he always appreciates those who inspired him from an early age. From  Stan Lee and showcasing a custom Thanos in his museum, Robert Englund signing his Freddy Krueger, and Zakk Wylde enjoying a custom Skullthrone in California, to Ted Raimi, Meatloaf and the Sheepdogs, Lars has always enjoyed giving back to those who inspire his own arts.

Recently, The Burton Cummings Theatre chose to honor him with the front lobby display of a 4x8 Larsworks piece that had been given to Mr. Burton Cummings on his New Year’s Eve Birthday bash in 2022. Lars has been invited to tour North American festivals and events every year and always looks to encourage others to see art as a career. His own non-profit arts foundation has recently taken shape to bring a more modern aspect to the arts in Northern Manitoba.

Born and raised in Churchill, Kyle has returned to his hometown after leaving for college in the big city. Using technology to his advantage, Kyle has found a creative outlet by combining design software learned from his schooling with inspiration of the town he loves, creating custom wood working art pieces. With a background in manufacturing, Kyle produces laser-etched and engraved wood working pieces that represent the area and town he grew up in. Now branching into the arts world, Kyle helps present the town's artists and connecting them with other northern communities to promote local art in northern Manitoba.

Josephine graduated from the academy of acting in the spring class of 2009.  After devoting a few years to focus on her family and sewing career, Josephine had a sudden move to the town of Pinawa.  Once settled in she came to learn that Pinawa is home to the Pinawa Players which is the oldest continuing amateur theatrical group in Manitoba.

Josephine accepted her first roll with the Pinawa Players in 2018 as Insector Goring in Ken Ludwig’s A Games Afoot.  Post covid, Josephine was cast in Love, Loss and What I wore by Nora Ephron, Delia Ephron and Ilene Beckerman. In 2023 Josephine played Lucy in Norm Fosters On a First Name Basis. Recently Josephine was cast in the Ken Ludwig production of A Fox on the Fairway as Muriel Bingham.

When she’s not acting, Josephine is behind the camera as an amateur photographer.  She can also be found in her private sewing studio designing the latest clothing attire. Wherever she is, her dream to act never fades.
