On December 5 and 6, 2026, step inside the studios of the six artists from the first cohort of Habiter le MAC: Sierra Barber, Miri Chek, Marly Fontaine, Po B. K. Lomami, Myriam Simard-Parent and Sarah Toung ondo. Over the course of eight months of residency, these artists have transformed the MAC into a space for research, experimentation and dialogue. During this studio open house, you will have the opportunity to visit their workspaces, explore the creative paths they have pursued and engage directly with the artists.
This is a rare chance to see the results of eight months of creation and to celebrate the conclusion of the first cohort, which ends on December 14, 2026.
Habiter le MAC is a new career development program that places emerging artists at the heart of the Museum as it prepares for the opening of the new MAC at Place des Arts in 2028. Offering dedicated creative space, mentorship and professional support, the program emphasizes emerging talent and encourages creative encounters with the public.
The program is made possible thanks to the generous support of Les Printemps du MAC. The MAC also thanks the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec (CALQ) for its crucial financial support, provided directly to the artists as part of a sustainable partnership supporting the vitality of Quebec creativity.
