Our Motto
You’re in the club!
Ottawa Design Club is a volunteer-run creative community for designers and creatives in Ottawa. We host speaker events, publish zines, and create programming that brings people together around design, ideas, and shared work.
The Design Club is part of a broader network of creative communities, with chapters in Marseille and New York. Each chapter is locally led, shaped by its own community, and connected through shared values. Welcome to the club!
