BIA in the News

We were honoured to have Caroline Phillips — one of Ottawa’s most beloved chroniclers of the city’s social and community scene — join us at Beechwood Cemetery for Partage Beechwood 2026.

Her feature captures the evening beautifully: the sold-out crowd of 200 gathered at the long table, the Moroccan-inspired dinner by Chef David Godsoe, Carole Saad’s exquisite styling, the sudden downpour that gave way to a double rainbow, and the impromptu rendition of Here Comes the Sun led by Melanie Brulée, Tara Shannon and Sam Stone.

As Caroline put it: “For all its beauty, the evening is really about neighbours being there for neighbours.”

Read her full recap — with names, quotes, and stunning photos from the night — on Caroline in the Capital.
