In a time when the media is drowning in images of war, greed, and oppression and an opioid and mental health crisis is unfolding in our city, how do we keep reaching for light? Soft Opening is a podcast recorded in Niagara Falls, Canada that explores the connections between art and healing, and between vulnerability and creativity. Created and hosted by Niagara Falls-based life celebrant, counsellor, and poet, Catherine (Cat) Skinner, Soft Opening features intimate interviews with songwriters, poets, comedians, performers and visual artists who speak candidly about their personal experiences with creativity and resilience. Themes of recovery, grief, spirituality, wellness, sensuality, darkness, and the erotic unfold in each episode and safe space is created for artists to share their stories and discuss the creative process.
Season one of Soft Opening is made possible with the support of the Niagara Falls Cultural Development Fund.
