Art That Doesn’t Flinch: Reimagining the Spaces Where Violence Hides with Christopher Quigley

A deep dive into how immersive art can expose and heal the everyday environments where gender-based violence takes root.

Today’s guest is Christopher W. Quigley, a Nova Scotia–based artist, designer, and stroke survivor who has transformed personal adversity into a powerful national mission. He’s the founder and Executive Director and Creative Director of ALCHEMIA Art Workshop, a nonprofit arts organization rooted in the belief that public art can spark real social change.

His latest project, Transformation of Dangerous Spaces, is a cross-Canada installation that reimagines the hidden places where gender-based violence often begins, bathroom stalls, locker rooms, the ignored corners of public life. Through sound, light, and visceral design, Christopher invites Canadian men to reflect on consent, accountability, and the spaces we take for granted.

It’s art, but not just gallery art. It’s a call to action. And it’s as Canadian as it is urgent.

It's Never Too Late to Chase Your Dream w/Dennis Welch

Dennis Welch is a lifelong songwriter and recording artist who is experiencing something of a musical renaissance now in his late 60's. 

After recording his 2000 album, Songs From My Window Seat, he continued to write as if he might go into the studio and record again very soon. 

But 18 years later, he had a backlog of songs and no new recordings. Then, a miracle happened. Long-time Little River Band guitarist and producer, Rich Herring, heard one of Dennis' songs and offered to produce it for him. That turned into an album that released in 2021, What Love Makes Us Do. That album was on the first Grammy ballot in 5 categories. 

In 2023, he and Rich recorded and released If I Live to be a Hundred. It too made onto the first Grammy ballot in 5 categories. 

In July of 2025, Dennis will release his latest album, Strong. He'll be touring around the country doing live shows for most of the summer and early fall. 

All of this is proof that it's never too late.

The Benefits and Challenges of Growing Up as a Third Culture Kid with Inga Aksamit

My guest today is Inga Aksamit, an award-winning author, travel writer, and globe-trotting adventurer whose latest memoir, Between Worlds: An Expat’s Quest for Belonging, explores what it means to grow up between cultures.

Inga spent her childhood living in countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Peru, and Indonesia as part of an expat family, navigating war zones, culture shock, and constant upheaval. Her experiences as a third-culture kid shaped her lifelong curiosity about the world—and her search for identity and belonging.

She’s also the author of Highs and Lows on the John Muir Trail and The Hungry Spork Trail Recipes, both award-winning books that reflect her love of the outdoors and storytelling.

Whether she’s writing about hiking remote trails or processing the ripple effects of childhood displacement, Inga brings a voice of compassion, insight, and adventure to everything she does.
