PSA for people interested in seeing the Warhol at the AGO: when we were in Oakville, the nice Oakville Gallery2 employee passed on the rumour that there were free tickets for the AGO Warhol exhibit available from the Eaton Centre. I googled it, and this:

http://www.redflagdeals.com/deals/main.php/weblog/comments/21946/

suggests that if you're lucky and go at the right time, there may be free tickets if you are willing to stop by the Eaton Centre. It apparently involves filling out a survey; and they get new batches of tickets, according to people who've investigated. ...Go, redflagdeals.

I don't think we'll be going this weekend, but perhaps the next? *shrug* ...the Oakville exhibit may have fulfilled my Warhol itch, actually.

...hm, there seems to be a little old lady with a butterfly net walking back and forth in front of my office window. How odd. Though I suppose it is a university.

Feeling sort of disjointed; this evening's plans include a talk from EFF Canada at the LUG. I should leave now to do a few errands beforehand, but I don't feel like biking home. History shows that my energy levels don't tend to go up when I stall at work, so I should leave. But I want to finish fixing up something, too. Meh. It'll be here in the morning!

[livejournal.com profile] okoshun and I get in free anyway. I think we can get one person free in with us, but we'd have to look up details.

Ah. Membership has its privilages? :) If we lived in TO, I expect we'd become members of way too many arts organizations. Or, just the right number. Hard to say. :)

:) At this time we just do the AGO and the ROM. It's expensive, but they're organizations we like supporting. At some point we donated a big chunk of money to the ROM expansion fund, which I gather is going to get our names on a plaque somewhere in the museum. I figure that that's sort of nifty. :)

"dont shake the art" has become a tag???

warhol: if you are going the weekend of aug 26-27, let me know your plans. i think [livejournal.com profile] tocityguy wants to take me to a jazz concert on the saturday evening, and Toronto Islands on the Sunday daytime. maybe we could meet up with you & dan on the Sunday for lunch or dinner.

It has. I endeavor to have additional entries to put under that tag, though I won't be pedantic about it...

Warhol: fair nuff, we'll let you know. :)
