Reminders: blog panelling, grad showing and plan commenting

A few reminders:

• Thursday night 24th in Toronto is the Canadian Society of Magazine Editors mixer with a panel on blogging. I will be up there with Douglas Bell of Toronto Life's Spectator blog and Heather Mallick of CBC.ca and the Guardian's Comment is Free. It's upstairs at the Bar Italia starting at 6 p.m.
• [UPDATE and CORRECTION] Thursday night24th, 7 - 1 and Friday night 25th 3 - 10 pm is the second annual graduate show of students from Sheridan College's Illustration program. The first show was spectacular and heartening for those of us who love the art of magazine illustration. The second, which takes place at the Burroughes Building at 639 Queen Street West in Toronto promises more inspiration.
  
• The deadline for responses to the Department of Canadian Heritage's plans for a major renovation of the Canada Magazine Fund and the Publications Assistance Program is end of business, Friday 25th. This is a very important watershed for the industry, particularly smaller, specialized cultural and literary titles.
