Meet your Maker-in-Residence 2026

2026 Maker-in-Residence, Cato Cormier, at the ideaMILL in Millennium Library. Samples of her artwork are overlayed on the left side of the photo.

Cato Cormier

Cato Cormier (she / they) is an illustrator and comics artist from Montréal — now living in Winnipeg, on Treaty 1 territory. Her artwork (at times boisterous, at times sentimental) is inhabited with unusual, eccentric characters. At the heart of her story-telling through-image-making practice, there is a yearning to connect with others, often through humour.

Cato is offering drop-in studio times in the ideaMILL and running workshops at library branches throughout the city.
