Today in Toronto you can look forward to TIFF's Food on Film series, which is showing The Gleaners & I, considered one of the best documentaries of all time. At Nicholas Metivier Gallery, Edward Burtynsky's stunning photos from five-year-long project Water are a "natural" (sorry) fit with David Shapiro's textured works on paper. The show's on April 2-25.

Then, though they chose The Great Hall as the setting for one of their most recent music videos, Belle and Sebastian decided to spend their next foray into town at Massey Hall, this time for a full-fledged concert in honour of new album Girls in Peacetime Want to Dance. Take advantage, since time with the prestigious space is a bit limited. For more events, click on over to our events section.
