Activity and venue descriptions are provided in their original language.

Événement

October 24, 2-4pm at Cité des Hospitalières (Noviciat)Continuing Through Stitch : Palestinian Embroidery Workshop is a two-hour presentation and hands-on beginner embroidery workshop exploring Palestinian embroidery as a living artistic practice that connects tradition with the realities of the present. The workshop will begin with a short presentation featuring artwork by Palestinian artist Kawn Bader. Through the work, Kawn will discuss how traditional Palestinian embroidery can be engaged with as a contemporary artistic language—one that responds to present-day experiences and realities while remaining connected to histories, memory, and cultural knowledge. The presentation will consider how embroidery can carry tradition forward while also documenting the present and creating traces that may be encountered by future generations. Participants will then take part in a hands-on introduction to Palestinian embroidery. They will learn basic cross-stitch techniques, how to prepare fabric and thread, how to read a motif pattern, and how to begin stitching a Palestinian geometric motif. The session will include demonstrations, individual guidance, time for practice, questions, and conversation. No previous embroidery experience is required.Registration link hereAccessibility :Cité des Hospitalières is wheelchair accessible.

CULTURE MONTRÉAL EN CARTE

About this map

Montréal has a rich cultural offering, but information is scattered across websites, social networks, noticeboards and posters. Getting an overview can be difficult. Montréal en culture aims to simplify discovery by bringing cultural activities together in all their variety. The project is also inspired, with some nostalgia, by the weekly calendar of the cultural magazine View, which featured a varied offering, from shows to talks and from popular events to more unconventional activities. Adding a map, Montréal en culture invites you to explore that richness across the city. Still a prototype, this independent project aims to become an essential reference for cultural outings in Montréal.

The site was originally designed for desktop use. A mobile interface is now available.

A broad understanding of culture

The directory takes a broad view of culture: artistic creation, presentation, heritage, knowledge sharing, and opportunities for discovery or participation. It covers the Montréal urban agglomeration, including its associated islands. Its scope develops with the sources and activities recorded.
