Want to create, but haven’t made the leap? 
Don’t have space at home to create?  
Need support to do art projects and want to have this experience in a warm atmosphere that is conducive to discussions? 

Sign up for MAC’s Creative Moments!

With no previous experience needed, this program of activities that is closely linked to the visual arts allows you to engage in colourful experiences.

With a team of art mediators, you will delve into certain aspects of the creative process.

Every week, we will offer you a new visual arts or media arts activity: the subject, theme, technique and media will vary.

Book early: spaces fill up quickly!

During these workshops, you will be inspired by several artists from various disciplines – installation, video, photography, drawing and tapestry –  whose practices explore notions of modernist architecture. In addition to reflecting on the evolution of cities in our societies, you will experiment with visual arts strategies and unusual materials. More specifically, your creations will take flight through themes addressed by the exhibition: megastructures, the esthetic of buildings from the past, and even the history of Place Ville Marie, the Museum’s temporary home during its transformation.
