Pique Summer Edition 2023


  • Arts Court, OAG 2 Daly Avenue (map)

Pique is back with its largest edition yet! Join us for a joint-birthday bash to celebrate Debaser's 10th anniversary and SAW's 50th anniversary with groundbreaking performances, art exhibitions, screenings, workshops, and more.

The occasion triples as the Arts Court Open House Party, bringing together the building's resident cultural organizations to animate every corner of Ottawa's most vibrant cultural hub for an afternoon of free building-wide family-oriented activities.

Pique summer edition features 30 artists across 10 stages and multiple exhibition spaces, indoors and outdoors. The outdoor Art Market returns to Daly Ave with 25+ artist and food vendors, and for the first time at Pique, we are bringing live music back to the neighbouring Jail Hostel (the site of Debaser's first-ever show 10 years ago)!

Admission is PAY-WHAT-YOU-CAN with a suggested contribution of $25-$50.

To purchase a ticket below or above the suggested sliding scale, please register for our pay-what-you-can ticket program.

The event is ALL AGES and licensed.
