Entertain yourself with the best online content!

Apr 06, 2020

Ottawa Public Health has recommended that all residents of Ottawa practice social distancing. Ottawa Public Library will be posting daily ideas of online content to help you make the most of your time at home. 

 

Social distancing doesn't mean that we can't live experiences together. Thanks to the magic of the web, you will be able to attend courses, shows, and fun programs.

Here's a list of our top 5 live events for this week.

  1. Canada Performs is a series of online concerts brought to you by the NAC. You can watch several artists perform every day from the comfort of your home! https://nac-cna.ca/en/series/canadaperforms?fbclid=IwAR3QimKN-AoUim83UjinBIq3Wsq05_LLjC9ODXk7KTCG-S_mC9yw3tsSHhE
