The art scene in Longueuil
Old Longueuil, around rue Saint-Charles, is the cultural heart of the city, where old houses, terraces, shops and small venues sit side by side. Plein sud, an exhibition centre for contemporary art, shows work by artists from the region and beyond, and the city regularly programs exhibitions and cultural activities in its public spaces throughout the year.
As in many suburbs, a good share of artists in Longueuil and the surrounding area work from private studios, at home or in small shared spaces. You will meet their work at group shows, craft markets, or simply by getting in touch. Local libraries and cultural centres across the agglomeration also host exhibitions by area artists, a good way to spot names worth following.And when you want a wider view, Montreal’s galleries are one metro stop away, just across the St. Lawrence.
