PUBLIC ART
public art circuits
every corner of québec city | february 28 - april 20
Again this year, the Winter Garden will make the streets and squares of Québec City resonate with several new works of art. Three circuits, from Saint-Roch to Old Quebec by way of Saint-Jean-Baptiste will come alive as they are imaginatively renamed Rêveurs, Citadins, and Curieux, as young and old wander and wonder at the works of seven talented artists. A full map of each route will be unveiled in the coming weeks.
CREATIVE WORKSHOPS
GUIDED TOURS AND CREATIVE WORKSHOPS
As part of this fourth edition of the Winter Garden, elementary and secondary school students are invited to Espace Quatre Cents to view the exhibitions and take part in a variety of creative workshops. There will be four activities to choose from, each inspired by the artists’ techniques and unique creative expression. Students will learn new skills to make their own works of art, including vegetable-based cyanotypes, a small book about hares, a quirky animal sculpture, or a collage based on their own silhouette. The workshops will be designed and led by professional cultural mediator Gabrielle Borgia. The guided tours and creative workshops are entirely free of charge for schools. Please reserve your space by contacting communications@manifdart.org.
The general public can also enjoy guided tours and creative workshops at a cost of $5 per person, per activity. Whether with family or friends, it’s a chance to fuel your mind and warm your heart with art! Schedules and reservations will be available starting February 1st.
