Weekly Meeting - September 24, 2025
Field Trip to Arts Ottawa
Speakers: Nicole Milne, Co-Leadership Operations & Revenue Generation
Cassandra Olsthoorn: Co-Leadership, Strategy & Community Mobilization
"Arts Ottawa’s programming and services are designed to address critical gaps and challenges in Ottawa’s arts landscape. Through a lens of mentorship and peer-support, we provide a range of opportunities to engage, build careers, expand networks, and access funding. At the forefront, we are committed to platforming the voices of artists in our community to inform and shape our programs and services - working together to achieve a vibrant and sustainable sector."

We had a valuable evening with Nicole and Cassandra, who shared insights about Arts Ottawa and their innovative approaches to meeting the diverse needs of the city's artistic community. We also discussed ways in which our club could support their endeavours. More discussion to follow on how ROS may be of assistance.
