The biggest gallery in Ottawa. There is free admission every Thursday from 5–8 pm and great exhibits. Even the architecture of this building is a piece of work. Plus, lots of things to do outside. The 'Nepean Point' behind the gallery is a great place to sight-see day or night, and there's an outdoor arena that's beautiful to sit in out front.
