Shared Ground

Shared Ground

Calling in Leadership on Cultural Spaces and Reimagining Downtown Through Arts and Culture

On June 25th, Arts Ottawa will host the first event under our new initiative, Shared Ground—a day of learning and collaborative design, where we’ll begin shaping a collective vision for arts sector readiness.

Our learning day will be hosted at “Place de ville” —a unique pace connected to the Lyon LRT station.

Together, we’ll map, prototype, and model sustainable, arts-forward space activations through community visioning and participatory design. Learnings will inform an upcoming charette focused on transforming vacant urban spaces into cultural assets. This day also launches the Community Leadership Circle, calling-in leadership to contribute to Shared Ground as it identifies strategies and pathways to bridge the gap between artists and revitalization projects.

We will explore how we can future-proof arts spaces as places for community gathering, creativity, and collaboration – grounded in cultural co-design, community expertise, and the power of imagination in city-building.
