Cultural Venues

The borough has two cultural centres: the Maison de la culture de Côte-des-Neiges and the Maison de la culture de Notre-Dame-de-Grâce, which has two separate locations, Botrel and Monkland. They offer performance venues and various exhibition halls that are accessible free of charge. They host film screenings, concerts, visual art, workshops and much more.

The Maison de la culture de Côte-des-Neiges, located next to the Côte-des-Neiges library, contains a performance hall, three exhibition halls and a green roof with a relaxation area with a unique view of Saint Joseph’s Oratory.

Housed in what was once a police station, the Maison de la culture de Notre-Dame-de-Grâce - Botrel has a performance hall and two exhibition halls. The Notre-Dame-de-Grâce library is also found in the same building.
