11 Reasons to Love Ottawa

A lovely building full of beautiful art can sometimes be a dull place for kids, but the National Gallery's Artissimo program livens things up. Kids ages 3 and up are invited to create amazing works of art, solve art puzzles or go on a scavenger hunt to find certain paintings throughout the gallery. Bonus: the Byward Market is steps away and home of dozens of fantastic cafes, featuring the best treats in town.
