Montreal Cultural Calendar

I'll be hosting a year end zine-making session again this year! I have a template people are welcome to use, but there are many templates and it can be really nice to design your own. Generally it involves:
 
1) looking through your calendar and photos and writing down what happened this year, week by week (or month by month if you want to do it faster)
2) Answering some questions (writing or drawing or point form or whatever) about the year. Like: who did I spend time with? Who showed up for me? Who did I show up for? What felt good? What was hard? What's a song that meant something to me? Etc.
3) Thinking a bit about the coming year and answering questions about that too in your zine

It's more paralell play than guided workshop.

Optiional:
- Feel free to bring pens or markers or art supplies
- Feel free to wear something comfortable
- Feel free to bring snacks to share, ideally vegan so I can try it too! Snack ideas: fruit. berries, veg, nuts, hummus, muhmmara, pita, samosas, most baguettes, many crackers, most very dark chocolate, oreos, sweet chili heat, spicy dill, katjas, so much more

Invasive Palette —
Gizem Candan

Exposition de vitrine d’hiver
Du vendredi 19 décembre au jeudi 8 janvier 2026

Finissage à la galerie
Le jeudi 8 janvier 2026, de 17h à 19h

Palette invasive est une installation immersive et une recherche continue basée sur un seul matériau qui décline les couleurs à travers des pigments et des colorants extraits de différentes parties du nerprun commun, un arbuste exotique envahissant. Ce travail examine la mémoire matérielle, l'identité et les diasporas. Il ouvre une nouvelle perspective sur l'économie des déchets dans la ville et encourage le public à ralentir et à imaginer les couleurs potentielles des déchets qui nous entourent, non seulement en tant que produits, mais aussi en tant qu'entités vivantes

Exposition visible depuis notre vitrine, sur la Plaza Saint-Hubert, durant notre fermeture hivernale.

Gizem Candan

Winter Window Exhibition
From Friday, December 19 to January 8, 2026

Closing Reception at the gallery
Thursday, January 8, 2026, from 5 to 7 PM
�Invasive Palette is an immersive installation and an ongoing mono material-based research that investigates the colours through pigments and dyes extracted from different parts of common buckthorn—an invasive exotic shrub. This work examines material memory, identity, and immigrant diasporas and opens up a new perspective of waste economies in the city and encourages the public to slow down and imagine the potential colours of our surrounding waste—not just as a product, but as living entities.

Visible from Saint-Hubert Street during our winter holidays closure.

- Most jobs are never advertised, but shared through trust networks.

- Searching for work alone is a depressing.

- & Once you get a job, the boss sucks.

What to do? Team up to help each other find work and make it good with a union.

How will we do that:

1. Roundtable: everyone shares what kind of work they are looking for.

2. We discuss what kinds of networks, communities, or resources we have access to.

3. Everyone commits to carving out a small amount of time out of their own job search to help another member of the fam.

4. Got a job? know your rights + how to set up a union at your workplace.

Rinse and repeat.

La majorité des emplois sont jamais affichés; ça passe par du bouche-à-oreille.

Chercher du travail tout·e seul·e peut être démotivant.
...et quand tu trouves une job… le/la boss est poche.

On fait quoi? On s'entraide et on se supporte pour trouver une job — et la rendre meilleure avec un syndicat.
Comment on va faire ça :

Table ronde : chacun·e partage quel genre d'emploi ielle cherche.
On jase des réseaux, des communautés ou des ressources auxquelles on a accès.

Chaque personne s’engage à mettre un peu de temps, dans sa propre recherche de travail, pour aider quelqu’un d’autre dans le groupe.

T’as déjà un emploi? Connais tes droits + comment syndiquer ton milieu de travail.

Quoi de mieux pour se retrouver entre Burner que de faire un potluck? Rejoins nous le jeudi 15 janvier 2026 à 7 pm pour discuter de projets d'art pour taBURNak!
Tu as un concept brillant mais tu ne sais pas comment la mettre à exécution?

Tu as besoin de matériel spécifique et tu ne veux pas hypothéquer ton chat dans le processus?

Tu as de la place chez toi et ça te ferait plaisir d’accueillir un makerspace éphémère pour décharger des 3 ½?

Tu aimerais bien faire de quoi, mais tu préfères embarquer dans un train déjà lancé que partir la locomotive à bras?

Tu n’as jamais performé devant un public et ça t’intimide full?
Ne cherche plus, trouve-nous : on t’attend pour jaser, boire, manger et s’extasier devant les possibilités qui s'offrent à nous.
Rendez vous au 3895 rue Evelyn (métro de L'Église, sur la ligne verte). Ramène quelque chose à partager, tes souliers d’intérieur si tu es frileux.se de la voûte plantaire, et laisse toi inspirer! See less

What better way to get together with fellow Burners than to have a potluck? Join us on Thursday, January 15, 2026, at 7 pm to discuss art projects for taBURNak!
🔥 Do you have a brilliant concept but don't know how to execute it?
🔥 Do you need specific materials and don't want to mortgage your cat in the process?
🔥 Do you have space in your home and would like to host a pop-up makerspace to unload some 3 ½?
🔥 Would you like to do something, but would rather jump on a train that's already moving than push the locomotive by hand?
🔥 Have you never performed in front of an audience and find it intimidating?
Look no further, come find us: we're waiting to chat, drink, eat, and marvel at the possibilities before us.
Meet us at 3895 Evelyn Street (L'Église metro station, on the green line). Bring something to share, your indoor shoes if you're sensitive to cold floors, and let yourself be inspired! See less

Populism, Sovereignty, and Democracy in Alberta
By McGill Institute for the Study of Canada
Follow
McGill Faculty Club and Conference Centre
Jan 19 from 4pm to 6pm EST
Overview
A lecture by Dr. Jared Wesley (University of Alberta)
Join MISC at 4:00 pm on Monday, January 19th at the Faculty Club (3450 McTavish Street) for Dr. Jared Wesley's lecture on Populism, Sovereignty, and Democracy in Alberta.
From a conventional perspective, Alberta politics today seems like a more extreme version of itself. In this view, the UCP government is one of the most conservative in the province's history and a century's worth of western alienation has come to a crescendo with the rise of separatism. A closer look reveals something different about Alberta's new right, however: they are not conservative, and their goals have less to do with sovereignty than "making Alberta great again." The Common Ground team at the University of Alberta has surveyed over 10,000 Albertans and convened over 100 focus groups over the past six years. Our findings reveal a decided disconnect between public opinion and political culture in the province, exposing daylight between who Albertans are and who they see themselves to be as a community. In this talk, Dr. Jared Wesley outlines how this gap contributes to the democratic backsliding and separatist movements in the province, and what Albertans must do to pull the province back from the brink.
The lecture will be followed by a Q&A and reception. This event is free and open to public; registration is required via Eventbrite.
Jared Wesley is Associate Dean (Graduate Studies), Co-Director of the Peter Lougheed School of Politics and Democracy, a professor of political science, and member of the Black Faculty Collective at the University of Alberta. He leads the Common Ground research team, which is examining the intersection of public opinion, political culture, and public policy in Western Canada. He has co-authored three best-selling books in Canadian politics and public administration: Inside Canadian Politics, The Public Servant's Guide to Politics in Canada, and No I in Team: Party Loyalty in Canadian Politics.

Les chemins entre le mot et l’image
23.01.2026 – 28.03.2026
Vernissage @ ARTEXTE
22.01.2026 – 17h00
Soyez des nôtres le jeudi 22 janvier 2026 pour le vernissage de « Les chemins entre le mot et l’image », une exposition par l’artiste Marie Samuel Levasseur.
Décrire une œuvre, pour Marie Samuel Levasseur, n’est jamais un geste neutre ou technique : c’est une manière d’être en relation, de saisir la parole soit pour accueillir, soit pour exclure. Chaque description est une voix. Cette exposition propose de circuler à travers les voix qui créent des voies entre le langage et ce qui fait image.
Vernissage en deux temps : dans l’objectif d’assurer un accès sécuritaire à toustes, la première heure d’ouverture de ce vernissage, soit de 17h00 à 18h00, le port du masque sera obligatoire. Des masques de grade médical seront fournis si vous n’avez pas le vôtre. Dès 18h00, le port du masque sera suggéré. Toutefois, si vous avez des symptômes de grippe ou de rhume, veuillez s’il-vous-plaît considérer de porter un masque pour le bien-être de toustes. Merci de votre collaboration.
gratuit | sans réservation | ouvert à toustes

01.23.2026 – 5:00 pm
Join us on Thursday, January 22nd, 2026, for the opening of “The Paths Between Word and Image”, an exhibition by artist Marie Samuel Levasseur.
For Marie Samuel Levasseur, describing a work of art is never a neutral or technical act: it’s a way of relating to others, of using words either to welcome or exclude. Every description is a voice. This exhibition invites visitors to move through the voices that create pathways between language and imagery.
Two parts opening: in order to ensure safe access for everyone, face masks will be mandatory during the first hour of the exhibition opening, from 5:00 to 6:00. Starting 6:00 pm onwards, masks will be recommended. However, if you have flu or cold like symptoms, please consider wearing a mask for the well-being of everyone. Thank you for your cooperation.

L’entrepôt Van Horne, est l’un des symboles visuels les plus identifiés du Mile End. La plus récente version de son projet de transformation, bonifiée quant au respect de la valeur patrimoniale et aux usages qu’on y propose, suscite toujours des inquiétudes et de l’opposition.
Nathalie Tremblay, architecte ayant collaboré à la rédaction de l’Énoncé d’intérêt patrimonial commandé par la Ville en 2023, et Joshua Wolfe, titulaire d’une maîtrise en urbanisme et ancien commissaire à l’OCPM, vous expliqueront en quoi la proposition soumise est le fruit d’un travail architectural sensible mais aussi à l’origine de nombreux questionnements. Ils présenteront les prochaines étapes de l’évaluation municipale du projet qui mènera – ou non – à son approbation. Ils présenteront ensuite les recommandations issues des consultations et aborderont les prochaines étapes.
