Center d'action culturelle de la MRC de Papineau/CentreCentre d’exposition Napoléon-Bourassa

A crossroads of art and creativity

Located in the heart of the village of Montebello, the Centre d’exposition Napoléon-Bourassa is a vibrant venue dedicated to the visual arts and fine crafts. Four exhibitions a year highlight the talents of professional and emerging artists from here and abroad. Each visit is an invitation to discovery, reflection and emotion, in a luminous and inspiring space, accessible free of charge and adapted for people with reduced mobility.

The Centre is also home to La Fouinerie, a unique boutique featuring original creations by artisans and artists who are members of the Centre d'action culturelle. From jewelry and ceramics to textiles and works on paper, each piece tells a story and celebrates local know-how.

You'll also be amazed by the Livres Libres library, a collection of creative notebooks created by the community, and by the Symposiums d'art in situ, a series of spectacular public works in seven Papineau MRC municipalities (Papineauville, Ripon, Thurso, Plaisance, Val-des-Bois, Namur, Duhamel).
