Starting April 20, the Aime comme Montréal exhibit provides an intimate look into the lives and relationships of 60 inspiring and culturally diverse Montreal couples. Moreover, residents are invited to celebrate Earth Day this week at the Mount-Royal Chalet, where a series of conferences and shows will be held.

Expo 67 – A World of Dreams
Sometimes it takes a dream. There's no question that Montreal dreamed big in the early 1960s; big enough to be chosen as host city of North America's first "Universal and International Exhibition", also known as Expo 67. In commemoration of this dream and the amazing technological innovations that accompanied it, the Stewart Museum, in partnership with the National Film Board of Canada (NFB) features a brand-new exhibit on an event that struck a deep chord in Quebec and throughout the world. Presented on Île Sainte-Hélène, the exhibit, which is divided into six themes, offers people of all ages the chance to step back in time – through video mapping, virtual reality and soundscapes—and relive the excitement of that period. Immersive installations include Habitat 67 and the Labyrinth, a precursor to the IMAX. Outdoor guided tours of the former Expo 67 sites are also offered.
