Education

Pointe-à-Callière welcomes more than 100,000 young people a year. A stimulating school program and activities for day cares and day camps are animated by highly qualified guides who accompany the young people and their teachers and monitors in order to provide a rich experience. Everything is brought to bear on delighting, entertaining and informing the adults of tomorrow in a museum environment that is designed specifically for them.

To comply with health and safety measures ordered by the Government of Québec Pointe-à-Callière cannot welcome school groups at the moment. Our virtual activities Live from history - Primary and Live from history - Secondary remain available.
