The mission of PodSask is a simple one: to promote and support the thriving arts and culture scene (and more!) in Saskatchewan through multimedia journalism and storytelling.
That’s a very wordy way of saying there’s a lot happening in in this province, especially in the arts, and we think it all deserves a little more love!
PodSask is a website founded to be a hub for written articles, podcasts (hence the name), videos, and more that focus primarily on that aforementioned arts and culture community. Now, you might be asking yourself…
And you know, that’s a great question, curious hypothetical figment of my imagination! Here at PodSask, we believe the term is broad in scope and interpretation. Is the latest play at your local theatre arts and culture? Yes! How about the bands playing at the bar down the street? Absolutely! Your favourite movies and TV shows and books? For sure! The delectable dishes served up at your local cafe? Sounds like it to us!
The point is, arts and culture can mean a lot of things to a lot of people – and we hope you’ll come by to check out the variety of content we’ll be creating for you!
