Free admission Galerie La Seigneurie in the Centre culturel G.-P.-Vanier 450-698-310 Oil and acrylic on canvas “This exhibition addresses our most intimate relationships with the environment and confronts us with the relationship we have with nature, and the place that people take for themselves with often disastrous consequences. The fragmentation of ecosystems is one of the main causes of species extinction. However, the obstacle that will always be the most difficult to overcome remains our very anthropocentric posture. This theme underlying my work is perhaps the most important collision between man and nature.”

– Nicolas Nabonne

A juggler, a magician, a tightrope walker, a sword swallower, a lion tamer and a human-canon will put on an amazing show!

Theatrical twist: the artists have deserted the circus, leaving the musicians to meet their fate. To not disappoint the public, they will take on different roles, resulting in crazy numbers…

Place au Cirque!

Maison LePailleur was built in 1792 and its first public function was as the general store of the village. The permanent exhibition will allow you to discover the richness of the building, in addition to giving you the opportunity to delve into the daily lives of people who lived in the Lower Canada era. Accessible from spring to autumn, you will be able to have some herbal tea with scented flavors on the terrace at the end of your visit!
