Our flagship show in the Nation’s Capital is widely regarded as one of Canada’s premier showcases of handmade, attracting over 14,000 affluent and high-profile visitors over four days. The Signatures Show is held in the stunning Shaw Centre, located in the heart of the historic By Ward Market downtown, which draws in major foot traffic and is adjacent to a new LRT station.
The festival of zine culture and independent arts!
Join fellow zinesters, artists, and supporters at the second Ottawa edition of Canada’s biggest zine festival! We’ve got tons of cool events planned.
The largest fundraiser of the year for the Ottawa Humane Society.
First and foremost, we would like to acknowledge that this event and all work being done surrounding it takes place on unceded, unsurrendered Algonquin territory that was never given up and never surrendered. We also note that colonialism and genocide by the state is pervasive and ongoing.
Join us for the 19th annual Art in Strathcona Park! This much-anticipated event showcases the outstanding talent of artists from Ottawa and surrounding regions, and provides a platform to raise awareness for mental health issues in our community.
Offerings include paintings, photography, woodworking, and glass art, as well as jewelry, pottery, food, and more!
Welcome to the Main Farmers’ Market!
We are a 100% local and community run market located on 210 Main Street, Ottawa, every Saturday during the season from 9-2pm. All goods and produce are entirely self-produced and were grown or made within 160 km of our stands.
This Spring market is our inaugural event and will feature some of Ottawa’s most incredible crafters. There will be tons of stunning handmade items as well as tasty food and drinks for your bellies!
Stop on by and support your local makers!
