MONTREAL, April 28, 2017 /CNW Telbec/ - Beginning in May, Verdun will be hosting Les contes de Verdun. Live the country life in the middle of the city and share an unforgettable moment by the campfire with a storyteller. An experience that will remind you of your best childhood memories while creating precious memories for the younger ones.

Urban Sugar Shack
This sugaring off season, the Urban Sugar Shack invites Montrealers to visit its old-fashioned, mobile barn and taste some maple taffy. The mobile barn will be making the rounds of Montreal's 18 boroughs to ensure that sweet tooths of all ages are able to enjoy the gooey goodness. These family-friendly festivities will include musicians and storytellers, and coffee, tea, hot chocolate and other treats will be on hand.  All voluntary contributions will go to the Joy of Eating Better Foundation.

Vivre ensemble : Montréal, nouveau monde
In addition to highlighting the founding of Montreal's history and the encounter with Aboriginal peoples, the exhibition will emphasize different waves of immigrants from different cultures. All of these communities contributed in shaping the personality of Montreal: a French-speaking cosmopolitan metropolis with a very diverse population. An accomplishment of the Montreal History Center and the Office of the President of the Council.

An historical and fun tour along the Saint Lawrence between la Maison Saint-Gabriel and the Lachine Museum using a free mobile app, a game, and a series of outdoor panels. Close to 50 places of interest have already been identified on the total route of 17km. This route will be divided into areas for those who wish to explore on foot and those who wish to do so by bike but don't want to go the whole way. They will be identified on a geo-referenced map. The path will have two parts: an interpretive route accessed through the bilingual application, which can be viewed or downloaded either in its entirety or in selected areas. The application can also be downloaded on a mobile phone via interpretation panels located on site. Two approaches will be proposed for the path: one that is more informative, cultural and historical with audio clips and photos, accessible to all, and a playful one with a quest or a game, ideal for families.

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.
April 26th to October 8th – Stewart Museum

April 27th – Biosphère
