Come hang out, drink coffee/tea, sketch/paint/whatever, and meet fellow Ottawa artists!***No workshop this month, but we are introducing the Art Supply Freebie Bin (Name pending...) where people are welcome to donate gently used or new art supplies for others to take for free. Please keep in mind that they must still be functional, we are not accepting scrapbook material, broken tools or items that are probably better off used for recycling. Seeing as some people occasionally arrive at Artawa without supplies, simple half used sketchbooks, pens, or pencils could be handy! No paper larher than 11x14 please, as I do not currently have permission from OAG to store anything on site and will have to take the bin with me home after every meeting. Thank you :)
To those familiar with the space - please be available to help others find their way. There are a number of entrances and the space is quite large so there's a good likelihood of folks getting lost.
Also, please check out the rest of the gallery on your visit. There's a lot of great art to see and it doesn't cost anything to do so. :)
-- IMPORTANT INFO --
*Bring your own supplies*
The Facility:
- The space is on the main floor, just past the cafe
- To get to the closest entrance, you're entering from 10 Daly St, under the new condos to the left of Arts Court. You should see the cafe on your right as you enter. If you continue past the cafe, the room will be on your right just past the cafe
- If you come from the Mackenzie King side you'll need to go to the opposite side of the building and down a floor. Ask around for how to get to the cafe and you'll find your way
Parking:
- There's a paid parking garage across the street
- There's free parking at city hall on the weekends
- On side streets around Daly/Besserer there are usually free spots as well
Bussing:
- Daly/Nicholas is the closest intersection, enter on the Daly St. entrance
- Alternatively, get off at the Mackenzie King station, then walk over the bridge towards Nicholas (northbound) then enter OAG on your left. Walk through the building to get to the space on the opposite side
**Masks suggested but not mandatory**
One of the core objectives of Artawa is to create a safe space for everyone and we do frequently have vulnerable people who attend. While we're still figuring things out in this post-pandemic world we will be recommending the use of masks while in the main space.
If you have any questions, reach out to Kina Forney
