The easiest way is to set the "forceIFrame" option to false and then 
(within a 'ready' event listener for the chart) assign a click event 
handler to the "svg" tag inside the chart's div:

google.visualization.events.addListener(chart, 'ready', function() {
    document.getElementById('chart_div').getElementsByTagName('svg')[0].
onclick = function() {
        alert('foo');
    };
});​
