Toronto's Third Annual Festival Of House Culture
Drawing, Music, and Art Party

(one-way west from Bathurst between Bloor and Dupont)



So, this is a week-long festival of events that take place in people's homes. Each event follows the format Music A, Something, and Music B. At this event, I am Music B. Music A is Soul-pop by Sandra Taylor. The something in the middle is a life drawing class by Deb Wiles. You can draw the musicians, each other, or a stil life.

Just to be clear, I will be fully clothed at all times., Trust me, it's better that way.



Sunday. November 26, 7:30 - 10:30 pm
Toronto's Third Annual Festival Of House Culture
Salon on Dundas

At this event, I am the Something. I will be facilitating a conversation on electoral reform and proportional representation. Music A will be indie-folk humour by Erik Sedore, and Music B will be African-influenced songs by Frank Patrick.



See you there!

Luv,
Wayne
