INFORMATION RELATIVE AU PARTENAIRE COMMUNAUTAIRE :
Organisation :
City of Ottawa - Doors Open Ottawa / Portes ouvertes Ottawa
Description :
The aim of Doors Open events is to facilitate people's understanding and enjoyment of their local architectural environment while encouraging awareness of their built heritage. The immense popularity of this event reveals people's curiosity about buildings and about history. Heritage buildings are the cultural artefacts that surround us. And like all artefacts, they reveal something about our society, our values and our history - they remain the tangible evidence of our past. But unlike other artefacts found in museums and galleries, buildings are part of our everyday lives. They define our living spaces. A Doors Open event captures our imagination by allowing us the opportunity of entering inside those spaces - to eagerly venture through doors and discover the inner workings of a place, - why it is there, who designed and built it, its purpose today, its story within a neighbourhood, what secrets it may hold. Ottawa is the second city in North America to launch this major free event based on a successful European program to promote heritage, architecture and design. The City of Ottawa hosts Doors Open the region’s largest heritage and architectural event with the help of committed volunteers, the collaboration of Heritage Ottawa, Heritage Canada and the Ottawa Regional Society of Architects and the Ontario Heritage Trust. Partnerships between the City of Ottawa, building owners, neighbourhoods, and the corporate community all contribute to this unique event which is held annually on the first weekend of June.
