Today in Toronto will be a treat for anyone who loves the arts. Kevin Garrett performs at the Drake Underground, there's a free film screening at TIFF, a magic show, and a bring your own vinyl music hangout.
Events you might want to check out:Kevin Garrett (January 31 - February 1 @ The Drake Hotel)
Counting artists like Beyoncé, Sam Smith, and Katy Perry among his most loyal supporters, Kevin Garrett is one guy not be missed, especially in the close confines of the Drake Underground.
Magic Night (January 31 @ The Lockhart)
It's cocktails with a side of Magic at the city's Harry Potter-themed bar. Magician Dan Trommater returns this week and goes table to table for front row magic that'll impress even the deepest of nonbelievers. Everything starts at 7 p.m., and there's no cover.
Tuesday Drawing Club (January 31 - February 1 @ The Beaver)
Bring a sketch book and drink a beer at this night of free drawing with a guest appearance by a drag queen as the main model for the night.
Underground: The Funnel Experiment (January 31 @ TIFF Bell Lightbox)
This is a free screening of a documentary about one of the country's best-kept underground film societies. The Funnel was a fabled experimental film collective that remapped fringe practice in Toronto for a decade by building its own theatres and produced avant-garde art right under out noses.
True Stories Toronto (January 31 @ Garrison)
True Stories Toronto is a simple idea: a bunch of people having a drink in an intimate room while listening to other people tell true stories. Each storyteller is given the task of telling their personal story without notes in less than 10 minutes, and of course every story must be true.
Bring Your Own Vinyl (January 31 @ Glad Day Bookshop)
Bring Your Own Vinyl is a monthly music night at Glad Day hosted by James Fowler where DJ Chicket spins. With any purchase of a drink, food or a book, you get to put your fave album into the rotation. Indie Queens is this month's theme.
