Attention, stalkers of local multihyphenate Tyler Clark Burke: either you'll have to figure out how to be in two places at once this weekend, or you'll be flipping a coin.

The artist promises "paintings and sculpture and prisms" (oh my!)......

The Gallerist is Torontoist's new bi-weekly arts listings. Starting January 31st, check back every other Wednesday for a new batch of events. Last Thursday local painter Colin Druhan hosted a busy and boozy reception at Katharine Mulherin's secondary space on Queen West. His work (see 'Hail Satan' at right) features mainly portraits of fashionable men and sinister women, but there are a few friendly looking dog portraits scattered within the small space. Sharing the gallery......

What started off as a magazine about education issues in Canada has gone on over the years to serve as a springboard for dozens of Canada's best journalists: people like Naomi Klein, Rick Salutin, Stan Persky, Margaret Atwood and others. Well Torontoist is happy to wish This Magazine a happy 40th birthday and wish them many more years of publication success. Come celebrate with the gang at This magazine Wednesday at the Gladstone Hotel, starting......

As everyone’s favourite girl-about-town Tyler Clark Burke says, “This is really complicated.” Here goes. That sensation we all know and love as Santa Cruz returns this weekend, with not one, but two (count ‘em two) days of fun and adventure. This Saturday at 10pm at the Gladstone Hotel, TCB will host Eagle Eyes: The Party. There will be DJs, games, and “music to make you dance your head off.” Here’s where things get interesting. Those......

We think we've figured out the secret to Tyler Clark Burke's success. Cram as many party ideas into one event as possible. Case in point is her new old country, '70s rock social Lang Thang in the backroom of the Sparrow (92 Ossington) on Wednesday night. The event includes a food drive ($4 cover or free with canned/non perishable food donation), DJ Download & Repeat playing an ecletic mix of '70s rock and country......

Yes we know it's awfully presumptous of us to assume that Ignatieff could not just win the Liberal leadership but lead the party back into 24 Sussex Drive. But if Tyler Clark Burke can sell off Peaches' thong to try to buy a house then it's ok for Ignatieff to clean out his closet of Liberal merch and put 'em up for auction. We agree with Optimus Crime and think these John Turner earrings are......

When she's not auctioning art to build a house, Cap'n Hook-Up (aka Tyler Clark Burke) is throwing love-fests on boats and makin' indie kids dance. That can mean only one thing: Santa Cruz, baby. Saturday, August 26th @ Captain John's Ship. 10pm. $10. Go here.......

Expect 3-D laser cut glass sculptures, paintings, fibre optic drawings and original musical compositions by Gonzales. If it's like everything else she does, we know it'll be fabulous.

Move over Trevor Coleman your claim on the maritime themed music scene is being challenged by none other than Santa Cruz organizer/DJ/ Tyler Clark Burke. Sure, Coleman, our carrot-topped, bespectacled booker can lay claim to possibly the only bar in Toronto that has faux-portholes (if there are any others do let us know!). Sadly, the Boat remains very landlocked and also happens to be up a set of stairs, not a very nautical location if......

Tonight Pontiac Quarterly unleashes its second issue this year at The Drake Hotel (8pm). For those of you unfamiliar, PQ is a performance magazine where writers read their fiction, feature stories - even advice columns - on stage in front of a live audience. Coming around only four times a year (it's right there in the title!), The Torontoist looks forward to it like our mom looks forward to gardening season. This issue's theme......

We go to know Wolf Parade when half the band composed original music for Torontoist's sister's experimental theatre production. The music was splendidly good, and the paper maché, which they may have had a gooey hand in, wasn't half bad either. Now the band plays cuddly puppy to Isaac Brock's Golden Retriever of a label. People might say their work 'defies categorization,' which means critics can't pick two bands and cross-polinate them in an effort......
