On November 26, Coach House Books launches The State of the Arts: Living With Culture in Toronto, volume two of the uTOpia series. The State of the Arts explores the Toronto arts scene from every angle, featuring 38 essays by Toronto writers, thinkers, musicians and city-builders that paint an honest portrait of where culture in Toronto is and where it can go.

To help you warm up during this bitter fall, Coach House Books, in conjunction with This Is Not A Reading Series and Wavelength, is holding a barn-burner of a book launch for The State of the Arts on Sunday, November 26 at The Gladstone Hotel. Heated discussions on 'official art' and 'unofficial art' in the afternoon and searingly hot Toronto musical acts like More Or Les, The Phonemes and Scarborough A/V in the evening will keep you nice and toasty. And your attendance at the launch means you'll be in the know when your friends start talking about the city as cultureshed, extolling the virtues of the Ex as an arts venue and heading out to the suburbs in search of Toronto's next great artists.
