Three Spacing editors have essays in the book, as do a number of folks who have contributed articles to past issues.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>The State of the Arts explores the Toronto arts scene from every angle. The essays consider the big-ticket and the ticket-free, from the Opera House and the CNE to the accidental art of graffiti eradification and under-ground hip-hop. In between, you&#8217;ll find considerations of art in the suburbs, how business uses the arts to sell condos, questions of arts infrastructure, a consideration of Toronto on film and a history of small press publishing. You&#8217;ll read about the fine line between party and art, the trials of being a capitalist in a sea of hippie artists, the power of the internet to create arts communities and a plea for venues that cater to musicians and their kids.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Sunday, November 26, 2006<\/strong><br \/>\nGladstone Hotel Ballroom (1214 Queen St. W.)<br \/>\n$5 \/ free with the purchase of a book<br \/>\nco-presented with Pages&#8217; This Is Not a Reading Series<\/p>\n<p>Doors open at 2 p.m.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3:00 p.m. &#8212; Panels<\/strong><br \/>\nmoderated by Misha Glouberman<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unofficial Culture:<\/strong> Karen Hines, Sarah B.
