To discover, see and do...

Housed in the Tonnancour Manor, a magnificent historic building dating from 1723, the art gallery is located right in the heart of Old Trois-Rivières.

It is an exhibition centre for contemporary art, as well as a meeting place and stop popular with those interested in current art and history. The gallery presents about ten regional, national and international exhibitions every year, featuring established and new artists from near and far, in solo and group exhibitions on themes or connected with special events. The gallery is associated with the international biennial of contemporary sculpture, held every even-numbered year, and the international biennial of contemporary prints, held every odd-numbered year.

These current art exhibitions are complemented by exhibitions on local history and historic figures.

There are all kinds of activities accompanying the exhibitions, for all ages.
