MEM - Centre des mémoires montréalaises
The MEM – Centre des mémoires montréalaises – continues the activities of the Centre d’histoire de Montréal. See you at the end of summer 2023 in a new museum and public space in the heart of the Quartier des spectacles.
The MEM prioritizes citizens’ voices, past and present. We collect and present first-hand accounts from a range of communities to tell the history of Montreal.
The MEM is carrying out activities in various neighbourhoods while gathering feedback from the population. There are also online activities ranging from podcasts to educational programs.
