Art: What's the Point?
There's a lot of nervousness in the arts community this fall. In June's federal budget, Finance Minister Jim Flaherty said he wants to find a way to eliminate the deficit by 2014-2015.
That means the government has to find a way to save about 4 billion dollars a year, and many people who work in the arts are afraid they'll be on the chopping block.
Professor Paul Yachnin is moderating the discussion. He is McGill's Tomlinson Professor of Shakespeare Studies. Margie Gillis will be speaking on the panel. She is one of Quebec's best known contemporary dancers and choreographers.

Creating a look
Grimes aka Clarie Boucher is relative newcomer to the Montreal music scene. But her quirky, atmospheric pop is making an impression. And so is her fashion aesthetic.
Montreal designer Renata Morales used to do ready to wear collections but now she's moved into providing stage costumes for bands and artists, including Arcade Fire and Grimes
They came to talk about how music fashion co-exist, and what it takes to create the image of a pop or rock star.
