Goin’ out in style!
Before you pack up your beer bong and collection of unused condoms, you might want to pop into Hart House tonight, March 21, for Latin funksters Pedras Da Rua. Presented by Hart House Music, Pedras da Rua is an eclectic band that merges Brazilian bossa with funky rhythms. Led by Louis Simao and David Gouveia and featuring Venezuelan beauty Eliana Cuevas on vocals, the press release assures that “this group will ignite your senses!”
It all gets down around 8:30 p.m. in the Arbor Room, and as we all know, it’s FREE! Call (416) 978-8668 for any more details, but what the hell could you want to know? We’ve told you everything!
Getting artsy
in the ‘burbs!

Comprised of works submitted by both U of T and Sheridan students, you’ll get to experience music, dance theatre and fine arts for, like, zero bucks!
