After what was, for most, a short week, we have arrived at yet another beautiful summer weekend in this great city. With so much going on, you’ll want to read through and plan ahead to make the most of your precious weekend time. As we all know, it is never quite long enough.
AXENÉO7 celebrated the official opening of their summer programming this week. The Gatineau visual arts centre officially announced the works of the artists that you’ll be able to see in and around their location for the season.

This late into December, weekend outings in Ottawa will inevitably involve some measure of holiday-themed craft shows. And while this week’s Weekend Roundup is certainly full of cheer, I hope there’s a little bit for everyone, Grinch and otherwise. Oh yeah, and there’s some hockey stuff going on.
This weekend isn’t only about the giant monsters of La Machine, although we are pretty excited to check them out. With lots happening in the city and on the outskirts (we’re looking at you, MayoFest!), grab your friends and have a blast.

The festival takes place from June 15 to July 23 at numerous venues. Prices vary and a great deal of the programming is free or pay-what-you-can.
After a brief reminder that we’re not quite out of the winter woods yet, the weekend holds greater promise of spring. And as always, there’s lots going on to keep you distracted from the fact that the spring equinox has passed and there’s “mixed precipitation” in the forecast for Friday.
