Ottawa Arts Council Arts Awards Set To Celebrate Local Artists

The time has come to celebrate Ottawa's creative community once again. The Ottawa Arts Council will host its annual Arts Awards on Monday, May 15th at the Ottawa Little Theatre, beginning at 5:30 pm. The event is free to the community (reservations required).

The Ottawa Arts community is evolving and thriving, and we are excited to come together and pay tribute to artists and arts leaders. We are looking forward to recognizing the inspiring work of our local creatives alongside our arts supporters.

With $28,000 in support of the 2023 awards, we cannot thank our sponsors and partners enough:

Mann Lawyers, GGFL, CABL, SPAO, Ottawa Art Gallery, DAÏMON, Arts Network Ottawa, MASC, Jamaal Amir Akbari, City Seltzer, Artists & Artisans Study Group, City of Ottawa.

They have been exemplary in their commitment to arts and culture in our city. Seven awards will be presented to recipients on May 15th; we hope you can join us in reconnecting and recognizing our local artists and all they have achieved.

For over 40 years, the Ottawa Arts Council has been a leader and catalyst in building an engaged, growing and inclusive Ottawa arts sector by:

• advocating for the arts to be supported, diverse and responsive;
• championing for a connected and well-promoted arts community;
• facilitating a stronger and more sustainable arts sector in Ottawa;
