Club SAW - Fully Accessible
67 Nicholas Street (around the corner from the OAG)
An electrifying venue for new music, independent film and video, experimental theatre and so much more, Club SAW is equipped with a licensed bar, all-gender washrooms and an outdoor courtyard completely renovated for the presentation of summer festivals and events. The site of the world’s first 2-Spirit Ball at the Asinabka Film & Media Arts Festival in 2019, this gorgeous space magically transforms into a bumping community hub.
Ottawa Art Gallery - Fully Accessible
50 Mackenzie King Bridge (around the corner from Club SAW)
245 cinema seats in the Alma Duncan Lounge disappear to reveal a 350-person capacity music venue when Asinabka switches from screening mode to party mode. The Terraces and Sky Lounge (the OAG’s skyline patio) offer sweeping city views that provide a distinctly urban backdrop for catching up with fellow art lovers over colas or beers.
Gallery 101 - Fully Accessible
280 Catherine St (across from the former Greyhound Station)
Thanks to the Ontario Trillium Foundation, Gallery 101 has renovated to be fully accessible, including a gender-neutral, barrier-free washroom and power-operated front entrance at grade. They are located at 280 Catherine St, across from the former Greyhound Central Station and one block west of Bank & Catherine Streets. There is free parking directly in front of and beside the gallery.
