Get confabulated: Award-winning author, UBC creative writing chair and celebrated phisher foil Steven Galloway teams up with magician David Gifford for the latest round the ongoing Beyond Words series at the Chan Centre as part of a book launch for his new novel The Confabulist about the life and unexpected death of Harry Houdidini.
Get tropical: The Vancouver Aquarium opens its doors for a licensed, adults-only evening offering a taste of the tropics with a wildlife such as a green sea turtle, blacktip reef sharks, clown anemonefish and corals as the guests of honour.
Get planning for the future: The legacy of the late Portland Hotel Society co-founder and Vision Vancouver mayoral candidate Jim Green is paid tribute to tonight at the Goldcorp Centre for the Arts with Coun. Geoff Meggs hosting a free event called Building a Social Housing Legacy for the Future.
Get prejudiced: Lizzie Bennett and Mr. Darcy take their usual tortuous path to true love in Metro Vancouver Theatre’s take on the timeless Jane Austen tale Pride and Prejudice.
Get in front of a TV: The Canucks continue their road trip back east tonight in snowy Buffalo against Ryan Miller’s old team.
