Art, Galleries, and More in Montréal, Québec

Although not the capital of Canada, nor one of the most densely populated metropolitan cities in the country, Montreal has been referred to as the country’s ‘cultural capital’, as the home of various art movements and a dynamic and all-encompassing musical scene. While the vast majority of residents in Montreal speak French as their primary language, a sizeable portion of the city’s population is bilingual in both of the country’s two official languages (English and French). Remember to pack warm clothing in your luggage, if you are visiting Montreal in the Fall or Winter, as winter can be especially gruelling.
