SILENT AUCTION CLOSES TODAY AT 5:00 p.m. EDT -
GET YOUR BIDS IN!
OGF is delighted by this very special addition to the Silent Auction !

This is Bob Nesbitt’s guitar! Bob was the founder of the OGF and his family generously donated his guitar, a Yamaha APX500NT acoustic/electric model. Included with the guitar is a vintage Ottawa Folklore Centre soft case.

In addition to being a fine instrument, this guitar is filled with heart and memories for a lucky musician.



The OGF Silent Auction is back! One of the most fun and popular features of the Festival - will be back in virtual form this year. We have a terrific selection of donated items - ranging from items to pamper yourself, beautify your home, and tickle your sweet tooth. The Silent Auction is a really important way to support the Festival - all of our performers are paid, and all of the funds raised will support the Festival and its artists.

The Auction site CLOSES TODAY, Sunday April 25th at 5:00 p.m.

Sugar Cookies – Support Live Music

The Ottawa Grassroots Festival with Strawberry Blonde Bakery is thrilled to launch these delicious and gorgeous musical treats in support of live music in our community. Strawberry Blonde is donating 50% of the sales of these yummy festival-themed cookies towards supporting the arts community in honour of Bob Nesbitt, the beloved Founder and Festival Producer, who passed away in February 2021. Cookies can be ordered with delivery as an option too. These cookies can also be shipped across Canada! For shipping across Canada, please contact info@strawberryblondebakery.com

The Ottawa Grassroots Festival is a non-profit, community-based, volunteer-run organization dedicated to cultivating community at the local level through a vibrant annual festival of concerts and participatory workshops. The OGF is in its 10th year and was founded by Bob Nesbitt, and dozens of very talented volunteers. The 2021 edition of the OGF occurs over the weekend of Apr 23-25th entirely online!

*Each order of 6 comes as an assortment of cookies shown at the website.

https://cod.ckcufm.com/programs/129/51156.htmlThank you CKCU radio for your support! Listen to CANADIAN SPACES with Chris White's tribute to Bob Nesbitt show here:  https://cod.ckcufm.com/programs/129/51156.html
Tribute to Bob Nesbitt (1939-2012). Bob created countless opportunities for people to develop, learn, connect and celebrate through the teams, organizations and events he created. Bob led the Ottawa Folk Festival site construction crew for many, and founded the Ottawa Grassroots Festival in 2012. The entire Canadian Spaces show on April 10 will be a celebration of Bob's many gifts and contributions.
 
We are extremely grateful for all our sponsors. They ensure we have free daytime programming, which makes this festival affordable for young families to attend and sharing with the community is what we are all about. Without sponsor support, this would be an entirely different festival and it's safe to say, the OGF would not be possible!
If you are interested in becoming a sponsor of Ottawa Grassroots Festival, please contact Alison Bowie alison@ottawagrassrootsfestival.com
We graciously acknowledge the support in grant funding from the Government of Canada, Canadian Heritage and the City of Ottawa.
