Capital Chamber Choir

It’s hard to believe that this weekend marks the beginning of March! With warm temperatures and plenty to do, it’s time to celebrate its arrival and get out on the town.

Happy weekend again, friends! We have buds on the trees, some sunshine on the way, and another great weekend chock-full of awesome things to do in the 613. Keep your eyes peeled for tulips, daffs, magnolias, and patches of real grass in your neighbourhood, and free tables at patios across the city on this last weekend in April!

Happy June, everyone! The city continues to come alive as the sun gets hotter and the days get longer. This weekend you can enjoy free entry to dozens of Ottawa’s most interesting and beautiful buildings during Doors Open, or choose to stay in and enjoy a variety of live music all over town. Election Day is Thursday in Ontario, so before you get too deep into your weekend plans, make your way to the polls and vote for a province you want to live in!

See the shows Apt613 contributors look forward to most in Ottawa-Gatineau!

Auditions will take place August 25–27 in the choir room at St. Joseph’s Parish.
