Where: OTTAWA ART GALLERY, STUDIO
Lower level, Daly entrance ave, across from Jackson Cafe in the glass windowed room and security desk.

When: Sunday, October 11th, 2026

What: Monthly artist meetup to make art, network, and commune with fellow creatives.

BRING YOUR OWN SUPPLIES! This is NOT a workshop, it’s a co-working hangout session. Bring whatever art project you’re currently working on and/or want feedback on.

ENTRIES ARE DUE NO LATER THAN THIS MEETUP! You will not be able to submit your Resonance artwork at the November meetup, it will be too late! See the Resonance main page for more details on drop-off dates and locations.

We want as many of our members to come to the next few meetings as we will be planning the theme and details and talking about some fun things in store for 2026.

If you choose to come a little earlier to help set up, no earlier than 2pm please! Here are some things we ALWAYS need help with:

– Setting up the tables in the “island” shape
– Make the coffee
– Heat water for tea
– Set out dishes
– Place snacks
– Take charge of the tunes
– Member sign-in
– Returning tables to their former places at the end
– Washing and putting away dishes / coffee maker
– General tidying

As always, please come prepared with your own art supplies/projects. We supply the space, lighting, tables, sinks and palettes/water cups if you are painting but you may not consume any of the materials on site.

Artawa is an inclusive group of creatives that meet monthly to create alongside each other, share advice and stories, socialize and network.

This is an accessible venue!

Come hang out, drink coffee/tea, sketch/paint/whatever, and meet fellow Ottawa artists. Bring your own supplies. Bring whatever art project you’re currently working on or have been ignoring lately!

If you have any questions, reach out to Kina Forney DIRECTLY via Messenger or Instagram DM (@kinaink) or info@artawa.ca

See you there!
