Enjoy a free community celebration in the heart of Little Italy as the Dalhousie Community Association marks Ottawa’s 200th anniversary! One of Ottawa’s earliest neighbourhoods comes alive with an Indigenous blessing from Albert Dumont of Kitigan Zibi Anishinabeg First Nation, live music from The Lockmasters, The Faes, and Kavita Thomas, and a dance performance by Yet Keen. Kids activities, giant games, ping pong, and live painting round out the day. FREE.
