  • 2015 Annual Report
    Goulbourn Museum Annual Report 15 www.goulbournmuseum.ca Sharing the Story of Ottawa’s Oldest Military Settlement FROM THE CURATOR MANAGER In 2015, Goulbourn Museum strived to create a sense of belonging and pride in our community’s past and present. Our milestones were designed to do just that: we celebrated 25 years in the community, held our largest event to date and received funding for a special project. To celebrate our anniversary, we featured several relevant artefacts on our Instagram page as well as in our newsletters, we threw an old-fashioned birthday bash on Father’s Day, and we launched a new exhibition about the history behind our local street names. Attendance at the annual Old Fashioned Christmas & Outdoor Artisan Market was astounding. The event attracted nearly 650 visitors, 15 artisan vendors and even Santa himself. That equates to 52% more visitors than the 2014 event, and 82% more than in 2013. We were also thrilled to have received funding through the Government of Canada’s World War Commemorations Community Fund and begin the process of developing exhibitions and programming related to medicine during the World Wars. Our Board of Directors is committed to ensuring the Museum maintains its stable leadership while continuing to grow. A new Governance Committee was formed and has been reviewing and updating our policies on a regular basis. The Committee is also looking at our Emergency Preparedness Plan and other governance-related documents. The Board continues to be supported by the Executive Committee and the Nominating Committee. Long-term plans include addressing the Museum’s site needs and space requirements.

  • 2014 Annual Report
    Goulbourn Museum Annual Report 14 www.goulbournmuseum.ca Sharing the Story of Ottawa’s Oldest Military Settlement FROM THE CURATOR MANAGER The Goulbourn Museum plays an instrumental role in preserving and sharing our commu- nity’s vibrant history. In 2014 we marked two significant anniversaries: the centennial of World War I and the 75th anniversary of World War II. Of course, these events changed the world, but the exhibition Homegrown Heroes highlights our local contribution. In conjunc- tion with the exhibition launch we planted an ivory silk memorial tree, kindly donated by the Fallowfield Tree Farm. We welcome you to add a name in memory of a loved one on your next visit. Thanks to our commendable team and our notable programs and exhibitions we saw a 23% increase in onsite visitation and a 16% increase in total participation. Additionally, the Museum was nominated for two awards in the West Ottawa Board of Trade’s People’s Choice Business Awards. Our fundraising expectations were exceeded by 43% and we received nearly 560 artefact donations. The third volume of Voices from Goulbourn’s Past, by Chairperson Linda Preston and her sister Cheryl McCoy, was released at Stittsville’s Arts in the Park event in May and quickly became a best seller. We were fortunate to partner with many new organizations in 2014. We worked with the Stittsville International Women’s Day Committee and Distinctive Women magazine to celebrate International Women’s Day. Together, we marked the occasion on Rogers Television and gave a historical presentation to students in Stittsville’s St.

  • FINAL THESIS.Pages
    Nurturing Space: A Matrix Approach to Architectural Intervention by Amanda-Marie Thomas A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Architecture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario Amanda-Marie Thomas Abstract Nurturing space is derived from a series of designed neighbourhood interventions that work together, forming a matrix that supports a community as a whole. This thesis focuses on the issue of a rapidly increasing population resulting from the condominium boom of Ottawa’s Little Italy and how nurturing can play a role in sustaining and encouraging the sense of community during a period of extreme growth and development. This issue will be addressed using Oldenburg’s model of the third place, coupled with Seamon’s Five Qualities of “At-Homeness” and further supplemented by original nurturing qualities introduced in this thesis. Together these concepts have been adapted to form a series of architectural guidelines which designers can use to inform the design of nurturing environments. These guidelines will then be applied to a Transit-Grocery-Station program that demonstrates nurturing through the provision of necessity while allowing for future growth and development. ii A matrix exists because of its parts. I would like to thank the following individuals for their continued guidance, encouragement and support throughout my educational career: Professor Yvan Cazabon, Associate Professor, Azrieli School of Architecture and Urbanism My parents, John and Susan Thomas My fiancé, Bradley Ferguson and the graduating Class of 2014, you have each truly played a role in nurturing the growth and success of my thesis.

    Goulbourn Museum Annual Report 13 www.goulbournmuseum.ca Sharing the Story of Ottawa’s Oldest Military Settlement FROM THE CURATOR-MANAGER Although I have been working with the Goulbourn Museum for a number of years, 2013 marked the first full year in my current capacity. What a remarkable year it was. I am proud to say that thanks to our dedicated team, updated exhibitions and outstanding program and event lineup, we saw a 22% increase in onsite visitation and a 38% increase in program participation. We have been overwhelmed by your support – your significant attendance, artefact donations and financial contributions – and your engagement with us across various social media platforms. We met many noteworthy milestones in 2013. Thanks to Member support at our Annual General Meeting, we earned our Certificate of Continuance from Industry Canada to comply with new regulations. We received funding and recognition from the Federal government's 1812 Commemoration Fund to produce the exhibition 1812 and the 100th as well as the publication Goulbourn's Top 12 of 1812. Our inaugural Old Fashioned Christ- mas: Art and Craft Sale featured a variety of local artisans and drew over 400 visitors to our site. Because we believe everyone belongs at the Goulbourn Museum, we revised our opening hours to better meet your needs. Effective February 2013, we are open Wednes- day through Sunday from 1-4 p.m. and admission remains free of charge. Due to your generosity, we received nearly 130 artefact donations in 2013. That number includes an incredible 27 boxes containing over 40,000 artefacts from an archeological dig in Richmond.
