What's Happening

As part of ROMWalks, there's a free walking tour of the Annex Sunday at 2 pm. Look for the person with the blue umbrella at Lowther and Avenue Road.

Speaking of the ROM, it is the venue for Shanghai: City of the Future?, a panel discussion about "Shanghai, which in recent decades has experienced a building boom on a scale that is unprecedented in world history and has completely changed its residents’ lifestyle." It ties in with the current exhibit, Shanghai Kaleidoscope.
The panel discussion features architect Brian Andrew, philosophy professor Mark Kingwell and author Jay Pridmore and is moderated by Toronto Star architecture columnist Christopher Hume. Tuesday, 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $10.

The Annex Wreck Room at Bloor and Bathurst hosts Shattered Remains Presents Flatlined tonight. In addition to Flatlined, the hard rock acts include Three See, Brane, Silver Cade and Helcion. Things get underway at 8 pm and tickets are $10 in advance and $12 at the door.

Tonight you can catch "I ain't marching anymore", an event featuring protest and folk singer Phil Ochs and Zachary Stevenson at OISE, 252 Bloor Street West. Tickets are $10 and $20 and things kick off at 8 pm.


The Tranzac club on Brunswick, south of Bloor, has its usual full sched, including The Weather Station + Muskox + Anna-Linda Siddall Saturday in the Southern Cross Lounge at 10 pm. Admission is PWYC/$5 suggested.


For all ages, the Palmerston Public Library on Palmerston just north of Bloor, features Laugh Out Loud Stories Wednesday at 10:30 am. As the name suggests, storyteller Adele Koehnke promises to tell stories that will tickle your funny bone.


The Bloor Cinema is "all about" the Rolling Stones Saturday with three $10-each screenings of Stones documentaries. Also on the sched this week is the new Indiana Jones movie, which doesn't disappoint.


The Trane Studio on Bathurst features Philadelphia's Elliott Levin Friday at 9:30 pm with The Sharron Macleod Quartet. Tickets are $15 in advance.

Whatever you do, enjoy it!
