“I have a farm here in Ottawa where I have Arabian horses. You should come visit me and take a picture of me on the horses!”
~ Abu Ahmed - community elder
Muslims of Ottawa is a photographic representation of the diversity and humanity of our community. The project is two-fold: (1) We want to share and document the broad array of cultures, lifestyles, professions and other defining features of Muslims in Ottawa and (2) we want to hear from members of the community in their own words. This project is a partnership between Muslim Link and abcreatives. It takes its inspiration primarily from Humans of New York, but is also influenced by loveOttawa and Somali Sideways.
