Pizza Nova launches today its 26th annual That’s Amore Pizza for Kids fundraising campaign in support of Variety – the Children’s Charity of Ontario. Since the campaign’s inception, Pizza Nova has raised over $2.7 million for the Variety community. This year's campaign, under the message of “Dip ‘n Give”, reasserts the company’s commitment to bringing even greater awareness and financial assistance to keeping kids active, engaged, and feeling truly included.

Throughout the month of May, Pizza Nova will donate 50 cents from every dip sold at participating locations to Variety, helping children with disabilities gain access to inclusive sports and recreational programming. This year, for the first time, Pizza Nova introduces a pop-up pizza shop at the Variety Village Café. Every Thursday throughout May, visitors can purchase fresh cheese or pepperoni pizza slices and a selection of delicious dips, with proceeds supporting the campaign.

Yoga in the Garden is back! Get your Zen on in the beautiful Henry House Heritage Gardens this summer!

Starting Friday, June 7, at 9 am, we’re on the mat and ready to flow. Classes are free drop-in 1 hour-long sessions, with donations accepted. All proceeds go to the Oshawa Museum. This series continues every Friday morning, rain or shine, through September (temperatures permitting.)

All levels of yogis are welcome! Please bring any props that support your practice. Also, not all yogis enjoy pets and animals during their practice. If you bring a pet, they must always be on a short leash.

To see a complete list of instructors, visit the Oshawa Museum website or our Facebook page.

About the Oshawa Museum: The Oshawa Museum preserves and promotes awareness and appreciation of Oshawa’s history for a diverse audience's education, enrichment and enjoyment. As the only community museum in Oshawa, we take great pride in showcasing our city's history from the earliest First Nation occupation to the end of WWII. The OM is administered by the Oshawa Historical Society, a not-for-profit charitable institution, as an external agency of the City of Oshawa.
