In late November, MediaStyle launched our brand new project: IdeaSpace, Ottawa’s Creative Collaboration Studio. We reached out to our community for help, and boy did you guys deliver! We managed to raise just under $6000 and with that money, we are well on our way to making IdeaSpace a reality.

The next step for us is demolition, and we want to offer folks who weren’t able to contribute during the campaign an opportunity to chip in. We need hands! Hands to wield a sledgehammer and remove the rubble from the space. If you have ever come to visit the building’s 4th floor, then you know it’s going to be a lot of work. MediaStyle is willing to repay you for this work, with IdeaSpace dollars. For each hour of labour, you will receive 25 IdeaSpace dollars, that you can use in the future to book the space, or to purchase an opening night ticket. Work 4 hours, and your opening night ticket will be paid for.

We created this project for our community, and we are so happy to have received this kind of support from you all. The blueprints for the space are almost ready, and we are all excited to get this project started!

If you would like to get involved with the demolition, please email rebecca@mediastyle.ca and keep an eye out for more updates on IdeaSpace!

Thank you, Ottawa!
