i work in theatre programming for the city and also i work with salamander theatre for young audiences. i am a storyteller with the haunted walk of ottawa as well. and of course, i support the culture as best i can through attending and participating with arts events whenever possible.

i love music and theatre and am always looking for projects and people to collaberate with, so don't be shy.

I contribute to one of Canada's most popular independent music blogs http://bridgingtheatlantic.blogspot.com and frequently write about local bands and shows.

I am a PR/Communications strategist always willing to help out local bands. Ottawa's talent pool is inspiring and most artists/groups just need a well-executed strategy to get noticed.

Indie Film Production

I am an independant graphic artist/illustrator/micro press from Ottawa and am interested in learning more about the Ottawa scene.

Bloomistry began in 2004 with a name inspired by an Ottawa storefront, H.H. Bloom Sound Enterprises. Based in the Capitol Region of Canada, Bloomistry records and mixes at The Underground in Hull, at Bova Sound and at Little Bullhorn Productions in Ottawa, Ontario.

I am an electronic musician looking for collaboration and performance opportunities.

I am a professional artist, a member of the Foyer Gallery, Ottawa West Arts Association, and Ottawa Mixed Media Artists. I am the curator at Gallery Farina (upstairs at Johnny Farina Restaurant on Elgin), where local artists can exhibit their work.

I produce textile art which I display in galleries and exhibitions, and I produce publicity materials for various fibre art groups.

I make ambient electronic music from a discreet space station on my desktop. These 'songs' then seek to populate various corners of digitized space like multicoloured gelatinous dendrites gone haywire.

Full-time professional glass artist primarily creating unique commissionned projects for clients' homes

In the process of setting up an artists’ marketing network (mARTketing?) for all artists, artisans and crafters to share their experiences and to discuss different ideas and experiences. We have a tendency to work in isolation, each having to invent our own wheels. I want to increase the marketability of art and artists in the area, helping to raise the profile of Ottawa’s arts sector at the same time. Marketing is the most important task we must undertake beyond the actual creation of our various artworks, but few of us really know what we are doing. I know that I have felt my own frustrations in marketing myself and my work despite having a better grasp of it than most…..

plan and play electronic medium events all the time. Mostly at the Mercury lounge and at la petite morte.
