You’ll feel welcome at Dovercourt Recreation Centre in the Westboro area of Ottawa, a community hub offering programs for all ages, including swimming lessons, fitness programs, afterschool care, sports, art & music, as well as Winter holiday camps, March Break camps and Summer camps. We are an accessible facility with a warm leisure pool and an accessible playground in Westboro Kiwanis park. Our park features fields, tennis courts and volunteer-maintained rinks in the winter. We also run a music and art school through Bluesfest School of music and art, and offer eclectic, one-off workshops through the Westboro Brainery.

The Foundation is committed to celebrating the voice and vision of artists with deep and abiding respect for the transformative power of art. Excellence and respect for artistic integrity guide all endeavors at the ranch. The Foundation encourages innovative philanthropy by bringing artists, arts organizations and art supporters together to share the creative experience. The Foundation does not give general arts grants outside the ranch programs, but offers non-profit organizations fundraising opportunities through tours and performances at the ranch. Grants are awarded to artists or art organizations in order to create original site-specific performance works for the Tower.
