Ottawa Asian Festival.
This weekend of September 10-11 Ottawa's Chinatown will be holding its first Ottawa Asian community open market festival.
It is a part of the City of Ottawa's 150th birthday celebrations. The festival is a symbol of Ottawa's rich cultural resources. It is designed to showcase the cultures and traditions of the Far East in Ottawa. It could well become an annual event.
The weekend market will be held in the parking lot at the corner of Somerset Street West and Cambridge Street and will feature lion dances, traditional Thai and Cambodian dances and martial arts demonstrations.
There will also be stalls selling a variety of goods. And then of course there is the food. Yum!
Admission is free and open to all. The festival is scheduled to open at 11 a.m. on Saturday September 10 and runs until 5 p.m. The hours for Sunday are also the same.
Look for a booth with a slew of enthusiastic teachers promoting the Ottawa ESL Schools.

Hurricane Katrina left a wake of destruction in southern USA leaving thousands homeless, hungry and in need of help. Here in Ottawa we were told to expect a month's rainfall in one day, but that didn't happen. It did rain - the fringes of Katrina - but that comparitively small amount of rain was more welcome than anything.
The Gatineau Balloon Festival is on this weekend. Hundreds of hot air balloons will take to the skies.
On Tuesday, September 6, we are back at school and looking forward to another great term of adventures in ESL. For details on registering for Ottawa ESL Classes go to http://www.eslottawa.com
