We held our wedding here in September and we couldn't have asked for a better venue. It's a stunning building with incredible, historic details. They're always featuring talented local artists, and the owners are absolutely lovely, accommodating people. Whether you're looking at this as an event venue or just wanting to pop into a beautiful gallery, you really can't go wrong here.

A surprisingly valuable exhibit of hundreds of pieces of good art, for pockets of all sizes. :)

Very nice collection, owner was helpful and friendly. Will definitely go back.

Heritage space displaying the best of Ottawa's contemporary art scene. Stylish bar and a small terrace make for fun vernissages. The location at City Centre makes it easy to stop by Art Is In bakery or Beyond the Pale to make for a mellow snack-art-pint kind of afternoon.

Alot of amazing art under one roof... make sure you don't miss out on the basement!!!

I finally had my wedding reception at the gallery two weeks ago after it being postponed twice due to the pandemic. They were extremely understanding and flexible of the whole situation. The owners, event coordinator, and bar staff were all fantastic. It was a wonderful experience. Such a unique venue that fit my vintage/eclectic style celebration. Truly a gem in Ottawa that was known to some of my guests and discovered by many that night. Thank you!

We got married at the Orange Art Gallery earlier this summer. The gallery is an amazing wedding venue! It is such a unique and beautiful space with so much character! The artwork really created a wonderful atmosphere and the gallery staff were so kind, welcoming, and accommodating!

Set in a historic building that was once the paymaster's headquarters for CN Rail, this is a stellar place to find well-crafted art, take classes with working artists, rent studio space or hold special events. Its location next to City Centre feels both secluded and central. The building is well cared for, and historical details respected, shop or feels like walking into a bit of history, but with interesting & eclectic contemporary art everywhere. The curator recently added a gorgeous bar and patio. If I were to get married again I'd want to do it there. In any case, I love going there because every time I do there's so much interesting, thoughtful & beautiful art there.

Great venue! Had an incredible night with Artizen Kombucha raising funds for Sweet Sanctuary - animal rescue!

Great gallery with a lot of shows, they keep art alive thank you guys!

Great use of the gallery as a wedding venue. Lots of space with artwork on all walls.

This was a beautiful gallery with no admissions fee! The art is unique and the atmosphere is calm and comforting. They played some light music and there were lots of different pieces to see. It's a smaller gallery so maybe plan for a 30min visit but there's a wonderful antique store not far that pairs well with it. Would definitely recommend for a quiet weekend trip :)

Great space.

Lovely venue for an offsite retreat - 20-30 people.

Cool place, lots of local Ottawa art work

Nice art gallery and decent event space

Amazing venue

Wonderful venue for an event!

Was here for a wedding reception. The staff are absolutely lovely and very attentive to their guests needs. Lovely food and drink options. Can't recommend this place enough!

I greatly appreciate the accommodating services offered by Orange Art Gallery. It is beyond charming as a historical venue and filled with amazing artistic talent. To top it off, the staff is always prompt and happy to answer any questions. Definitely worth checking out!

A nice surprise. Loved it

Loved the art, well shown and good lighting.

Love this gallery..it's authentic and artsy

Very cool art here. A must see in Ottawa.

We hosted our wedding reception at Orange Art Gallery in November 2021, and had a wonderful experience! The venue itself is gorgeous - as a heritage building it has a lot of class and character, and the art on the walls only adds to that. Plus makes decor a little easier! We had 58 guests, including ourselves, for a sit down dinner and party, and that felt like a perfect number of people. Intimate but didn't feel cramped. Jon was extremely responsive, leaving no question unanswered (and believe me, we had a lot of them), and the bar service during the party was fantastic. The free parking was much appreciated by our guests. Would highly recommend Orange to anyone considering it for a wedding reception venue!

Great display of many artists. Staff are very knowledgeable. The building is historic and beautiful.

Wow, if you are looking for I inspiration or the perfect art work for your place I would recommend you go wander in this wonderland of art!

What a hidden jem this place is I've been to a wedding, fundraiser and art show at this beautiful venue.

Amazing art gallery. Went for a wedding and loved going through the rooms and seeing the art pieces on the wall! Definitely will come back just for the gallery experience.

We had our small wedding at the Orange Art Gallery and the venue was perfect.  The art on the walls added a very nice dimension and the character of the building and terrace were enchanting. The bar was flexible in meeting our desire of showcasing Canadian craft beer, wine and liquor and the bartenders were, as several guests commented, extremely nice and friendly yet professional and mixing a mean drink. Art on the walls also provided spectacular and unexpected backdrop for some of our best wedding photos. We recommend Orange Art Gallery for small to medium weddings and other functions.

Thanks to Jon and the staff we had a beautiful location to have a great wedding. It was awesome thanks so much.

Interesting gallery. Good place for a private party - 40 people Thurs night

We went for a wedding reception it's a great venue

A unique spot in Ottawa! They display a variety of artists and mediums, and I love how it is split up into different rooms. The building is old, which adds to its charm. I recently photographed a wedding there and it’s such a great venue for couples looking for a unique vibe. The staff are accommodating and lovely, and their outdoor patio/deck is very spacious. Not to mention the stunning building makes for beautiful photographs.

We held an event for a guest speaker. Approximately 50 people lecture style. Everyone loved the charm of the gallery and even longtime residents of the city were happy to discover this gem. Jon is the event planner and is so experienced he anticipated and helped manage any technical issues. There are 4 small side rooms in addition to the main room where people can browse the art and mingle at the bar. The patio is a nice touch to a warm evening. Traversy custom catering was used and they worked well with the venue. Highly recommend.

Really nice gallery

Large collection, good variety, lots of events, nice setup

I went here for a work event. The art work was super cool.

It is always with great pleasure that I go to the Orange Gallery vernissage. I enjoy my conversations with the artists, the owners and the patrons. I like to bring friends to the gallery because I love the local and the location. The City Center sure is a funky place! And of course the opportunity to see great contemporary art!! Thanks Jim and Ingrid.

Attended a private event there and it was wonderful. Love the atmosphere, the art and the staff. Great little spot.

Wonderful place for an event, which is why we ended up going, for a friends wedding. It was a beautiful space with interesting artwork and a large patio for guests.

this place was pretty neat. no mention of oranges after entering, but art was something they definitely did have.

Ingrid is the best.

Great venue for events. Complete with catering/bar and art. 10/10

Pros: great exhibit and event place! cons: can be a little confusing on how to get there if you're walking or using public transit.

Nice gallery with a good selection of artwork

A wonderful hidden gem.

Always amazing art and a welcoming place. Worth a visit.

Great art and atmosphere, nice staff/owners

Attended a beautiful wedding with the best bride ! The bar staff were awesome and the art was fun to look at !

Amazing Venu and beautiful art for sale!

Cool place. Amazing staff!

Nice surprise! Didnt expect to find that place when I entered the place. Nice vibe, great art, no pretention. I dont know if people in ottawa know that place but I'm from Montreal and this is the kind of place I like to discover around the world. The bad reputation of ottawa about being a boring and heartless city was accurate before I've stopped there. Go head Ottawa and express yourself! This neibourhood is the future of the city for sure! I'd like to know more places like this in the area, probably more things like this goin on but I just dont know them...

Best art gallery in Ottawa, hands down. Gorgeous space.

Nice space.....loved the variety of artwork. Very friendly and helpful bartenders.

Home away from home friendly atmosphere with an abstract vibe through the artistic arrays of many pieces!

Love the art course and Julie Berthelot is wonderful!

Fun place to mingle and you can even check out the art.

Not good business practice from manager. There was a piece I found I wanted to purchase and contacted the artist directly. He told me the piece was at this particular gallery and he cc’d the gallery letting them know the price we agreed to. I asked the gallery if I have the option to break into payments, as I like to pay with cash/debit card and not have credit card debt. Ingrid was very polite and said she can break into 12 monthly payments and mail the piece out after my first payment. They would store my payment method and charge my debit card on the 1st of every month. I was very happy and then the manager, Jim Hollander, said they will not do that. I was quite frustrated and responded back to inquire. This was his response- “Most people borrow from a bank, maybe you should have done this through the bank to begin with, why should we take on your credit risk. How can you expect this from a small business”. I was shocked by his horrible unprofessionalism and lack of basic customer service. His gallery is the one who first offered me to break into 12 payments. While I love this piece, they will never get a dollar from me, so sadly I can’t add this to my collection. I highly recommend shopping elsewhere.

Very cool art. Nobody bothers you in here.

Visited gallery to view an artist's solo exhibition. Good crowd, warm and inviting as always. 🙂

Such a ying place that will fulfill your gang with inspiration and focus.

Super eclectic artwork that is really accessible (both in terms of price and the non-intimidating atmosphere). Also a fun place for events!

Nice event space. Cool art with a wide range of prices and tastes.
