A shameless plug – since I work for the Canadian Art Foundation – for our upcoming Reel Artists Film Festival in Toronto:

Save the Date for the 6th Annual Reel Artists Film Festival!

The 2009 Canadian Art REEL ARTISTS FILM FESTIVAL will take place in Toronto from February 26 – 1 March, 2009.

This year’s festival will focus on EDUCATION, STIMULATION and INSPIRATION with a FREE day of films for students, the WORLD premiere of Michael Blackwood’s film Georg Baselitz: Making Art after Auschwitz and Dresden and the CANADIAN premiere of The Universe of Keith Haring by Christina Clausen.
