Arthur is making our Twitch livestream debut on April 1st, 2021, at 8:00pm with our First Annual Fundraiser and Telethon! Over the upcoming days, we are aiming to hit our 2021 fundraising goal of $10,000.
Your money goes to: •Good paying jobs for content creators •Year-round operation •New tech for content production •The freedom to remain independent
Another difficult budget is on the horizon for the City of Peterborough, as City Staff informed Councillors during an all day meeting on Tuesday June 11th.
On November 16th, the editors of Arthur attended a media tour of the modular home community on Wolfe Street. The changes to the site in the year since we have been visiting and bearing witness to the magnitude of the homelessness crisis facing our community are staggering and bring about a wide range of complex emotions and feelings about what is transpiring.
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!
Arthur is back for round two with Issue 1. In this issue you'll find interviews with Stephen Stohn and the proprietors of Peterborough's newest independent bookstore, Take Cover Books. Get the latest on City Council's strategy on homelessness and reports from the ground of local protests. We're also happy to introduce a new column with "Gator Goes Global" and the return of fan favourite "Cinevangelism."
Welcome to Issue 3. What to expect: QUEERLINES, a radical insert created by the Trent Queer Collectives, further investigation into investment at Trent, a review of Ted Lasso a groundbreaking new TV show featuring sports and emotions, and much much more!
Sebastian and Abbigale discuss the six hour Peterborough Council General Committee meeting of October 10th, 2023 and try to makes sense of the theatrics and grandstanding of Peterborough-Kawartha MPP Dave Smith.
