PIKWAKANAGAN MENTAL WELLNESS AND RECOVERY DAY

Wednesday November 14, 2018

10:00 am—3:00 pm Makwa Community Centre

83B Kagagimin Inamo, Pikwakanagan, ON

It is my pleasure to invite you to our ‘Mental Wellness & Recovery Day’. This event is open to all community members to support those in our community who are affected by mental health and substance use disorders in one way or another.

We know that mental health and substance use disorders often go completely untreated in part due to a stigma that goes back centuries which still exists today. Even when treatment is sought it may be unsuccessful due to lack of information, personal comfort level, accessibility, and time frame for services or treatment challenges.

Join us for a day of learning, raising awareness, and sharing of resources to help us all make healthier and conscious decisions, so that we all can live a life of wellness, recovery and balance.

This event will include; guest speakers, demonstrations, service provider booths, resource sharing, networking, snacks and lunch, laughter & door prizes.

If you would like to represent a service that provides mental wellness and recovery, please do not hesitate to contact Alexandra Bednash to register by October 31, 2018 at:

addictions.mhs@pikwakanagan.ca or 613-625-2259 Ext 228

The Four Agreements

Agreement 1

Be impeccable with your word

Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean.

Avoid using your words against yourself or to

gossip about others. Use the power of your

words in the direction of truth and love.

Agreement 2

Don’t take anything personally

Nothing others do is because of you. What

others say and do is a projection of their own

reality, their own dream. When you are immune

to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t

be the victim of needless suffering.

Agreement 3

Don’t make assumptions

Find the courage to ask questions and to

express what you really want. Communicate with

others as clearly as you can to avoid

misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With

just this one agreement, you can completely

transform your life.

Agreement 4

Always do your best

Your best is going to change from moment to

moment; it will be different when you are healthy

as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance,

simply do your best, and you will avoid self-

judgment, self-abuse and regret.

Where to go? Zibi Sales Centre, 6 Booth Street, Ottawa, ON Should I RSVP?

We encourage you to let us know you can attend on our Eventbrite page. Search “Zibi” in Ottawa events on www.eventbrite.com We look forward to meeting you!

ZIBI PROJECT continued

Through this multi-phase development, Zibi will

transform the derelict land into a blend of

residential housing types, commercial and office

space, unique waterfront plazas and outdoor

squares, recreational facilities, and more. Truly

one-of-a-kind, Zibi combines unparalleled views of

the Ottawa River, Parliament Hill, and downtown

Ottawa and Gatineau skylines framed by a modern

architectural design that still respects the heritage

of the area. Zibi is where nature, culture, heritage

and the joys of life culminate.

What is the public art opportunity?

This phase of public art at Zibi builds on the

construction that is currently underway on the Quebec

side, with the project’s first public plaza and first

residential and commercial buildings. To honour the

partnerships with Algonquin Anishinabeg communities,

Zibi is seeking to commission Algonquin Anishinabeg

artists to create art installations for the three sites

described below.

PUBLIC ART SITES

1. Place Zibi – South Wall Located adjacent to the Sentier des Voyageurs NCC

pathway, and overlooking the Ottawa River, the

southern wall and steps of Place Zibi provides a blank

canvas for murals, etching or an art installation on the

wall. The wall is divided in 2 sections with a staircase in

the middle. The stairs can also be used for artistic

etchings or additions. During the construction of the

wall, granite was added to the concrete mix, to

accommodate for the potential of sandblasting the wall

to create additional texture and colour, should the artist

wish. Wall dimensions:

Left/West section: 2.55m (tall) x 13.4m (wide) =

34.17m2

Right section: 2.55 m (tall) x 12m (wide) = 30.6m2

Staircase: 8.7m (wide) x 7.3 (deep) with wall varying

from 2.3m to 20cm (tall)

INTRODUCTION

What is Zibi?

Situated on the banks of the Ottawa River, Zibi is a

new community being built in both the City of

Ottawa and the City of Gatineau, something that

has never been done before. In Ottawa, Zibi rests on

the western edge of downtown, consists of both the

Chaudière and Albert Islands and is surrounded by

the Ottawa River. These islands are physically

disconnected from both cities by the river and

present an opportunity to create a unique sense of

place amongst the heritage buildings on both

islands. In Gatineau, the lands are within the

downtown core of the city and provide an

opportunity to extend the city out to the banks of

the river.

Pikwakanagan Tibadjumowin – October 19, 2018

2. Place Zibi – Shade Structures

On the south side of the plaza, overlooking the park

and waterfront below, shaded areas or pergola

structures are planned with views towards the

Ottawa River. To-date the foundations for the

shelters have been installed and cannot be modified,

however the opportunity exists for artists to

customize the shade design and side structure of the

pergolas. Proposed dimensions:

West pergola: 3m (tall) x 10m (wide)

East pergola: 3m (tall) x 8.4m (wide)

Base fixture: 0.5m (wide)

3. Rue Eddy– Site Welcoming feature One of the principle entry points into the Zibi

community on the Gatineau side is at the intersection of

Eddy/Laurier streets. The northeast corner of the

intersection provides a unique opportunity to showcase

the partnership between the Algonquin Anishinabeg

community and Zibi, and be a welcoming feature or

sculpture as a visitor or resident enters the Zibi site.

Sculpture or feature dimensions to be discussed.

SCOPE OF WORK

The intent of this proposal call is to invite

Algonquin Anishinabeg artists the opportunity to

review the potential sites, select their preferred

project(s) and develop a concept and preliminary

cost estimate for the work to be completed.

and select the artist, please submit the following:

1. Artist bio, explaining which Algonquin

Anishinabe community you are from, a little

about yourself and the inspiration for your

submission.

would consider for the fabrication, how the

work would be installed and the overall

integration of the artist piece within the selected

site;

3. Sketches illustrating the overall design intent;

4. Preliminary cost estimate to complete the

works;

5. Additional technical support required, such as a

structural engineer, S sandblast technician, etc.;
