O-Town Animated

O-Town Animated is a free, outdoor public art and animation initiative presented as part of Ottawa’s 200th anniversary celebrations in 2026, supported by the 200th Tourism Animation Fund. The project will showcase original animated works that reinterpret Ottawa’s early Bytown history while also celebrating contemporary local animation. It will run for six months as part of the downtown Public Art Trail, activating multiple high-traffic sites and encouraging visitor movement through the city core.
