The fifth anniversary of the Creative Spaces summer event highlights the creation of a pedestrian mall on St. Catherine, between St-Hubert and Papineau streets. Taking place until September 16, the event offers an opportunity for the instigator of the project, the Société de développement commercial du Village (SDCV), in collaboration with the Ville-Marie borough, to celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of the creation of Montreal’s Gay Village. The spaces will open up for the display of creative installations and art exhibitions. More information on the event after the break.
“Aires Libres is an original way for retailers, residents, and visitors to appropriate an urban space through creative activities,” summarizes Bernard Plante, executive director of SDCV. And when it comes to creativity, SDCV has the means to match its ambitions, with a team of designers recognized for both their talent and their artistic fibre.
