With less than a month to go before Ottawa elects a new mayor, city council, and school board trustees, the Ottawa Arts Initiative is hosting a Town Hall as an opportunity to meet the mayoral candidates and ask them questions regarding arts and culture in Ottawa.
As of posting, Catherine McKenney, Mark Sutcliffe, Param Singh, Brandon Bay, Ade Olumide, Bernard Couchman, and Mike Maguire will be attending.

This town hall is part of the ongoing arts advocacy of Arts Network Ottawa and the Ottawa Arts Council, to “advocate for the social and economic value of the arts and culture in Ottawa,” according to their Twitter bio.
The Town Hall begins at 6:30 pm at Arts Court (2 Daly Ave), with a mix and mingle starting at 6 pm.
