Possible Worlds

After what felt like a long stretch of gloomy days, this weekend looks like clear skies and sunshine – and there is a ton going on to celebrate this fine weekend weather.

Last weekend may have brought us an extra hour of sleep, but we are now playing in dark mode for the foreseeable future, so don’t squander away those precious daytime hours and enjoy yourself this weekend. If you’re worried that you won’t be able to make the most of what little daytime we have this time of year, don’t worry; there is also plenty to do after darkness falls.

The longest of the long weekends is here! There are an extra two days to pack with excitement, fun, and a little necessary rest. Looking for ideas as to what to get up to? Us folk at Apt613 have you covered! We present to you the Weekend Roundup.

This gift guide is for your creative friends and family, whether they create or consume art, or enjoy doing both. Feel free to treat yourself to these awesome experiences and opportunities too. After all, when do we ever have too much art and culture in our lives?!

The end of August is upon us. It may not seem like it, with the blazing hot weather we’ve been having, but summer is winding down. Thankfully, there is plenty to do this weekend – whether in person or virtually – to help you make the most of one of the last weekends of the season. 

Here’s a peek at some of what’s happening around town this weekend. 

This week in the Future of Ottawa series, we’re taking a deep dive into four of Ottawa’s most unique music communities—what they’re like now and where things are heading. Read on for a guest post from Adriana Ciccone on the future of experimental music in Ottawa.

This week in the Future of Ottawa series, we’re taking a deep dive into Ottawa’s art scene—what it’s like now and where it’s headed. Read on for a guest post from Olivia Johnston on photographic arts in Ottawa.

Today, owning art doesn’t necessarily have to be an “investment” anymore. Thanks to the variety of formats, sizes, and materials available, artists are creating pieces that we can own or gift for pure enjoyment.

A series of bi-weekly streams will highlight and try to raise crisis relief funds for TK’s favourite Ottawa spaces and space makers.

Every first Monday of the month, Apartment613 will publish the coolest #ottarts #ottjobs we hear about.
