ABOUT OAW
Ottawa Architecture Week is a public forum that explores the ways in which architecture and urban design affect our daily lives. Throughout the week, they celebrate the role of architecture and the related trades in a way that is fun and engaging. They strive to bridge the gap between the architectural community and the public, in order to facilitate a constructive dialogue on the relationship between the built environment and Ottawa’s people.
Each annual edition is curated around a trending theme relevant to the architectural profession and the Ottawa–Gatineau community as a whole. The program features a variety of public events that include talks, exhibitions, installations, workshops, film screenings, tours, and panel discussions.
In 2015, for OAW’s 27th edition, we will explore what it means for Ottawa to be a livable city and a capital.
