Motifs détourés – Chantal Lagacé
The city slowly, subtly and continually changes.
These changes are the result of the residents who give the
city its rhythm; mould its shape, and who continually leave
their mark in different ways. Chantal Lagacé’s drawings,
paintings and photographs aim to draw our attention to
these transformations before they completely disappear.
May 5 to June 10
Dans le décor – Guillaume Tardif
Through installation and photographs, the artist explores the
notion of trash and obsolescence. He explores the aesthetic
potential of industrially-produced items that have reached the
end of their useful life.
Jardins réinventés de la Saint-François, 5th edition
A captivating experience at Parc de la Rive!
Walk down the path and look, smell, and listen… Using your
senses, discover artistic gardens designed by artists from two

moment to stop and see what nature inspires.
Dresses made with Cashmere toilet paper
Kruger room
With these creations by major Quebec designers, we wish to
connect the cultural side (arts and heritage) of the Maison des
arts et de la culture with the presence of Kruger Inc. in our
community. This company has played a key role in the town’s
economic and social development for more than 50 years.
This exhibition highlight’s a significant component of
Bromptonville’s heritage. One or two historic photos of the mill
over the years will complete the exhibit.
Bromptonville’s built heritage – Small rooms – 2nd floor
With photos of 19th century homes and antique items, the
exhibition features major figures who shaped Bromptonville’s
history. Recorded testimonials by people in the Borough of
Brompton recounting stories and memories will enhance the
exhibit.
This installation will provide a preview of the heritage tour
that will be available as of June 2013. The departure point will
be Parc de la Rive and lead into the heart of Old Brompton.
