February 25 Meetup

February 25 @ 2:30 pm - 5:00 pm

Come to the Ottawa Art Gallery Studio for our free monthly meetup to hang out, drink coffee/tea, sketch/paint/whatever, and meet fellow Ottawa artists.

February 25, 2024 : Mixed Media Workshop
For our first workshop/demo, there will be a short (30-45min) mixed media demonstration given by Kina Forney at 3pm. She will bring a variety of media to show you what mixes with what and how to create an art journal page by building different layers of materials on top of each other. She will bring a few materials to share and encourage you to bring a sketchbook or art journal to play along!

Reminder: Bring your own art supplies

Everyone is expected to bring their own supplies. Generally this is a “drink and draw” atmosphere, where everyone brings whatever they have going on, and use the meet-up as an opportunity to create, chat, network, and socialize.

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
  • 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. 🙂

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 info@artawa.ca or message  Kina Forney
