Happiness Habits 613 is beyond thrilled to head back to the Ottawa Art Gallery for our next in-person community art event of 2024!
Participants are invited to commence the creative process or bring an art project they are working on (drawing, painting, writing, beading, sewing, lyrics, whittling, you name it ... except anything that will get super messy). Happiness Habits 613 and the Ottawa Art Gallery will guide the group in an opening, introductions, a creative warmup and then some art-making time to some flowy tunes, plus an optional artwork sharing, check-out & closing.
This is a space for community connection, inspiration, creative expression and fun!
We might even do a quick tour of some of the new OAG art exhibit spaces.
Ottawa Art Gallery: The OAG is home to the Art and Artists of the Ottawa-Gatineau region; where you can experience the collections, exhibits and events that link us, and where connection happens between Art and City. Ottawa, YOUR ART IS HERE.
Happiness Habits 613: We are a grassroots group in Ottawa-Gatineau created in 2015 that cultivates healthy habits in the community through the 9 Pillars of Happiness. Join us throughout 2024 for our community events that ramp up in February 2025.

Ottawa Watch Party: 2024 U.S. Election
Mark your calendar and sign up on Meetup.com for an exciting evening as we watch the first returns roll in from 8 PM until the pub closes at midnight.
🍻 Kick Off the Night Early: If you want to snag a prime seat for the main event, you can also sign up for our monthly Skeptics in the Pub gathering starting at 7 PM, where you can enjoy great conversations, meet like-minded folks, and order dinner.
🌟Fun Activities: Throughout the evening, we’ll have trivia, analyses, predictions, and our own interactive map lead by our hosts, Kevin, Robert and Scott. There will likely be lively discourse and maybe some friendly debates at your table over some cold beers. You can also win prizes by taking part in a pool to guess the final voting percent and electoral college count that will be awarded at our next pub night on December 3rd. You won’t just watch the results come in—you’ll be part of the action!
💻 Can’t Make It in Person?: No worries! We’ll be streaming it all on Zoom. If you live in a different city or country, or if you can't make it to Centretown, just sign up at the CFIC Virtual Branch Meetup to get the address. You’ll be able to ask questions, share your opinions, and be part of the group as we celebrate or console.
🤝 Please Note: We are non-partisan organizations, so this will be an educational rather than a political event. With that said, don't be surprised if most participants are rooting for the candidate who shares our core values on issues such as climate change, the rights of women to make decisions for their own bodies, assisting families that live in poverty, and the protection of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community, refugees and other marginalized groups.
🎟️ Reserve Your Spot: Seating is limited, so be sure to RSVP early by going to Meetup.com and clicking the “Attend" button to secure your place for a memorable event you'll never forget. Each of the two host groups have their own Meetup notice, but you are welcome to attend both the in-person and virtual events.
Let’s be part history together!
