Museum Tours

Discover Montreal's most hidden gem! The Montreal Art Centre and Museum invites you to take a journey through time. Your visit will include a spectacular audio guided tour of our historic 19th Century patrimonial building in Griffintown.

Studio Spaces

Since 2010 the Montreal Art Centre and Museum have been the home to local visual artists through its artist studio rental programs. Located in the heart of Griffintown, the centre has 3 Art Galleries featuring the artworks of its member artists. The centre also includes historic museum rooms, plus 3 additional public galleries containing the centre’s permanent art collection of 19th-century paintings, and works on paper of world-famous artists!

Life Drawing Sessions

What could be a better way to start your week! Join us for an evening of drawing and sketching where you can practice your drawing skills and share your experience with other artists. All levels are invited!

Every week, on Monday, there will be an alternating male or female model, and we will provide easels and drawing tables.

Be sure to book your tickets in advance, as the number of seats is limited, bring your own drawing and sketching materials, and enjoy your session!

Movies

Book your tickets to an immersive movie night experience at the Montreal Art Center and Museum!

Surrounded by the 19-century art, our 15-seat vintage cinema welcomes its guests for an exclusive movie night experience where visitors can enjoy a vast selection of movies!
