The City of Peterborough’s 2025 Draft Budget proposesd a cut to city contribution towards the Art Gallery of Peterborough. Debby Keating, the President of the AGP’s Board, details the impacts of these funding cuts.
Despite Council's August directive to plan a budget at a 5% tax rate, the Draft Budget presented by Richard Freymond at Monday night's meeting sported a 7.8% tax rate inflated by unexpected operating costs and increased Police budget asks.
Humorist Stephen Leacock would find no shortage of fodder in the City of Peterborough's devotion to Pickleball, writes community member James Cullingham.
Happy Holidays from all of us at Arthur! The final issue of 2023 includes an editorial about the latest approach to addressing the homelessness crisis in our community, an interview with the Trent University Alternative Arts Collective (TUAAC), an announcement concerning Trent's newest College, and the return of "Dear David" in The Bowlcut. All this alongside updates from City Hall and the launch of a new section we have opted to call "Fistfuls" - story stories that pack a punch. From everyone at the paper, we wish you and yours a restful holiday season! See you in the New Year!
Issue 2 takes on the dichotomy that is Head of The Trent with two long-form articles discussing the impacts on the community from the perspective of Indigenous students and staff and a rollicking piece about the forgotten raison d'être for the whole event which fell on National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. Evan Robins debuts the first two parts of a series on Peter Robinson College 20 years after its sale. All this alongside community, City Hall, and campus news from the TCSA.
With Issue 7 we bring an end to the 58th volume of this fair publication and what a year it was! This edition includes the culmination of a month's long investigation into the working conditions of dons at Trent alongside local news, arts, and events coverage. In addition, we mark the hallowed return of Alfred for the second year running. Newsflash: We've gotten worse. Reader discretion is strongly advised!
Art is quite literally under attack in Peterborough as the community was not successful in appealing to City Council to reconsider funding The Theatre on King and the Artisans Centre.
