🎨 It’s Almost Here! ✨
Our 2nd Annual Art of Support Gala, presented by Linda Robinson Events, is just five weeks away and we can’t wait to share this special evening with you.

Join us on Thursday October 9th at the Ottawa Art Gallery, for an unforgettable night of art, live music, heartfelt stories, exceptional food and drinks, and community—all for a great cause.

All proceeds from this special gala fundraiser event, hosted by Pleo, will directly support our frontline family peer support services, helping provide parents and caregivers in our community with the hope, guidance, connection, and support they need, as they navigate mental health and addiction challenges for their children, youth, and young adults. [🎫 Get your tickets now: pleo.on.ca/art-of-support]
Prepare for an inspiring and artistic evening, featuring opening welcome remarks from Mayor Mark Sutcliffe, and we are excited to welcome back our returning emcee, Jock Climie, a prominent Ottawa lawyer and former CFL player.
Come Join Us to Experience:
• Interactive Clay Making facilitated by artist Ginger McCoy
• Live Painting by artist Allan André, and bid on the finished piece
• A Silent Auction of a curated selection of art and non-art treasures
• Live Music from artist Travis Jordan throughout the evening
• A Heartfelt Fireside Chat with artist Tara Shannon and her son, artist Travis Jordan, who will share their inspiring journey as parent and young adult navigating mental health and addiction, followed by a moving musical performance
• An Exquisite Array of gourmet bites and a variety of refreshments, to savour and enjoy throughout the evening
• DJ DHAO, creating the perfect celebratory atmosphere
This year’s event is especially meaningful, as this year marks Pleo’s 25th anniversary — a quarter century dedicated to providing vital family peer support for mental health and addictions.

Join us in celebrating 25 years of empowering families and support the next chapter of Pleo’s essential work.

Tickets are going fast, reserve yours now!
