Toronto Life Magazine awarded last winters wildly popular tribute to the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) spirit, Totsapalooza, with number 14 on their 2009 list of 50 Reasons To Love Toronto. Fasten your seatbelts, celestial explorers! For this years Totsapalooza: The Space Age Rodeo Edition, weve put together another amazing lineup of leading indie rockers, childrens authors and inventive crafts to celebrate how the DIY ethos defies gravity. Don Kerr & The Jet Pack Orchestra will beam the party into another galaxy with the help of Bellwoods Trinity, I Eat Kids and Sho, Mo & The Monkey Bunch. Also on the bill is Katie Van Camps award-winning tale, Harry & Horsie, (Harper Collins), Ashley Spires stellar feline, Binky The Space Cat (Kids Can Press) and Chris A. Rutkowskis eye-opening I Saw It Too: Real UFO Sightings (Dundurn). Catch future literary all stars in action at the Volume One Project Showcase. Enjoy organic space snacks from gourmet caterer Pantry. Dynamic brother-sister duo Ryan and Lisa Kelly from The Centre For Art & Soul will run activity and dance sessions. Kids will build musical instruments and UFOs that can actually fly out of recycled materials. And, of course, there will be an intergalactic jam session featuring budding rockers and indie veterans!
