This month, CreativeMornings Ottawa is marking a major milestone — their ninth birthday. For nine years, the local chapter has shared, promoted and inspired creativity in Ottawa.
What’s the best way to celebrate a birthday besides eating cake and gathering with friends? To go down memory lane, of course.
