"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."
- Alice's Adventures in Wonderland

A gallery of pure nonsense, Canteen hosts *Two Days Slow*, an Alice in Wonderland themed show. Featuring a multitude of talented international and local artists indulging in the whimsical world of Wonderland, the show promises the irrepressible silliness of white rabbits, tea parties, wise caterpillars, Cheshire cats and wide-eyed wonder.

For one night enjoy the mad and the impossible at the only Ottawa gallery that is truly a world of its own.

Don't want to be among the mad? Find yourself entirely sane... tea cups, top hats and pocket-watches welcome.
