Join us for a 1 hour meditation group this Saturday at Grange Park at 10:30. Meet us near the statue. All experience levels welcome. It's also ok if you want to leave early or join late.

Some people find it helpful to bring a yoga mat or meditation cushion. You may also find it helpful to bring earplugs. Bringing an extra layer of clothing is recommended.

The newsletter came out yesterday in case you missed it. Here are today's picks:

Here are today's picks:

Tartan Turban Secret Readings #49
Barrett and Welsh, 577 Kingston Road, Suite #301 | 7p-10p

Anything that's got secret in the title gets my attention. And then I realize it can't be that much of a secret if they have a website and post about their events. But even then, this sounds interesting. And you can get in before they hit 50 events. Deepa Rajagopalan curates this edition with readers Su Chang, Chido Muchemwa, Farah Ghafoor, Atom Cheung, and Taneet Grewal at a 3 hour secret reading session.

Beaches Jazzfest StreetFest
Queen St E & Woodbine Ave | 7p-11p

Opening night of the real Jazz festival. The live music is everywhere and besides the usual drink in a fruit, churro truck, and corn on the cob trucks, the local businesses really get into. Today is the quietest it gets if you're looking for that.

Rooftop Outdoor Movie: School Of Rock
CIBC Square Park | 9p

A park on the rooftop of the building next to Union Station. A classic comedy paired with complimentary popcorn and candy stations, bracelet-making, the whole deal. Bring something to sit on cause unless you're really early you're not getting a chair. Access via the Bay Street staircase on the West side or take the elevator up to the 4th floor.

TOPS Outdoor Movie: It Was Just An Accident
Corktown Common | 8:30p

Palme d'Or-winning Iranian thriller that's genuinely masterful and oddly funny. They're also screening a 15-minute short called "perfectly a strangeness" before it. BYO blanket or chair, eats and treats available at 7pm.

Lula x Union: Marta Elena
Union Station | 5:30p

JUNO Award-winning Cuban-Canadian artist Marta Elena is taking over Union Summer in a collab with Lula Lounge. Expect lots of dancing and I hope you join in.

Underpass Park Farmers Market
Underpass Park | 4p

Weekly Thursday market with fresh produce, meat, prepared foods, and local arts and crafts. They've got live music too so it's not just a grab-and-go situation. Runs rain or shine, every Thursday through October.

See a few more farmers' markets below and the full calendar.
