From Politics, To Trees, To Shows, To Shopping

On December 5th, Councillor Adam Vaughan will talk to The Seaton Village Residents' Association about development on Dupont Street. Details are on the association's website, though they're sketchy. There's a contact email, however, if you need more information.

A little farther afield but a quick tube ride away, The Bad Dog Theatre Company is remounting A Twisted Christmas Carol this year. I've heard it's a blast! And there's OPTIONAL audience participation. And the general manager's daughter goes to Palmerston, so there's a community connection, albeit tenuous.
Ah, just go and have fun.

Speaking of audience participation, the Downtown Jewish Community School in the MNjcc is presenting Sing-a-Long Fiddler on the Roof on Sunday at 2 pm at Innis College Town Hall (St. George and Sussex).
And I quote: "an afternoon of shtetl fun and frolic for the whole family, a singalong screening of Fiddler on the Roof starring Chaim Topol. Wear a costume, a prize will be awarded for the best one.
Jewish books & gift s & refreshments on sale.
Tickets $15 adults, $10 children.
Tickets available from the School Office or phone 416-924-6211 x150 or x112.
Proceeds to benefit the Downtown Jewish Community School."

Starting Monday, St. Alban's Boys & Girls Club on Palmerston at Vermont will be selling Christmas trees. Not too far to drag it home through the snow...

The Burrow Art Centre on Markham Street is having a holiday gift show from December 6 to 8 featuring "a wide range of super fantastic hand made artworks."

And there's always interesting shopping at The Tranzac Club's small but funky Artisan's Fair, which runs from noon to 6 pm on Saturday and Sunday. Even better than it being within hoofing distance just south of Bloor at 292 Brunswick? Admission is free!
