The MAJ invites you to take a tour on board of the MAJ Express and discover, free of charge, the artistic heritage of Lanaudière. Art historian Maryse Chevrette and Christian Morissonneau, historian and professor at l’Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières, will introduce you to the history of the region, to its artistic and cultural heritage as well as to the history of MAJ’s collection. The tour will end at the MAJ where you will be able to visit the exhibitions on view and take part in activities and workshops for the entire family.

This activity is made possible thanks to the financial support of the Fonds de développement culturel Lanaudière/Entente spécifique sur la culture et les communications, and the collaboration of the Conférence régionale des élus(es) Lanaudière.
