Wrapping up our coverage of Heritage Lower Saint Lawrence's Trails of Time: a Multimedia Guidebook to Historic Métis-sur-Mer! This incredible project has managed to preserve this charming town's heritage in a uniquely accessible format. Be sure to check it out next time you're in the area! #quebec

Ingenious new public art at Parc La Fontaine! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... #montreal

The time has come! Applications are NOW OPEN to join the jury for Trellis Micro-grants this year! We're seeking artists of all disciplines and levels of experience, so don't worry if you've never served on an arts jury before. Find out more and apply here: www.trellismicrogrants.com/jury #canada

Despite its Anglophone history, Métis-sur-Mer also hosts a significant Francophone community, which Heritage Lower Saint Lawrence made certain to include in the guidebook. As such, its text and audio components are fully bilingual, even dubbing residents' oral accounts in some cases! #quebec

Founded in 1818 by Scottish settlers, Métis-sur-Mer is a town with a rich and unique Anglophone history in a part of Quebec generally lacking in English speakers. It is this tradition that the guidebook seeks to preserve, making it easily accessible for future generations! #quebec

Introducing yet another Trellis project! Heritage Lower Saint Lawrence is a community organization serving Quebec's smallest English-speaking population--with the support of Trellis, they created a multimedia guidebook to preserve the history of Metis-sur-Mer! Stay tuned for more! #quebec

Cat lovers, take note! #montreal

Have a listen to our recipient Joan Sullivan's interview about her amazing project on Radio-Canada! ici.radio-canada.ca/ohdio/premie... #quebec

And that's that for the Montreal Printed Arts Festival! Be sure to check out their next edition and ARCMTL's many other offerings throughout the year that help make Montreal the cultural destination it is... for French and English speakers alike! #montreal #booksky

Emerging artists were equally a priority for this year's FAIMTL, including presentations from publications like À Flots and Pica Magazine, the latter featuring the work of students at UQAM's School of Design. Miniature prints destined for Distroboto machines were also seen! #montreal

Get informed before voting this November! #montreal #quebec

More great stuff from the Montreal Printed Arts Festival! Did you know this isn't the only initiative that ARCMTL is responsible for? You can get low-cost works by emerging artists at one of their Distroboto machines or attend the annual Expozine, Montreal's largest small press fair! #montreal

Since its inauguration in 2016, FAIMTL has been going strong... but of late they'd noticed a pattern: decreased Anglophone participation. As such, this Trellis grant was all about bringing the community back in and making them feel welcome... a great success, it would seem! #montreal #booksky

It's almost that time of the year again--Trellis Micro-grants Round 3 is just over the horizon! Save the date: as of September 1st, we'll be accepting applications to join the jury for all disciplines. If you're interested, check our link in bio for more info and how to apply when the call goes out!

The Festival is a huge endeavour, encompassing events at various locations from the Indigenous-run Daphne centre to the renowned Afromusée exhibit centre. But at the heart of all of them is a celebration of print-making--in fact, the Festival is the only one in the city dedicated solely to the art.

Say hello to our latest Trellis project spotlight... ARCMTL's Montreal Printed Arts Festival! From the same organization that's made Expozine a yearly item on the city's literary calendar, this showcase of all things print-making has much that's exciting to uncover! #booksky #montreal

Sorry, X-Files fans, it wasn't aliens... this time... www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... #quebec #montreal

AI is coming to replace artists, you say? Let's see if it can replace 1st graders in geography class first...

Stay cool out there, Montrealers! #montreal

That's a wrap on our coverage of Scorpio Moon! We were very lucky to be able to support this groundbreaking production and help bring it to a Francophone audience not normally seen attending English shows. Look out for Imago's forthcoming shows this season: Cult Play and Crash! #theatresky

Creating the surtitles for Scorpio Moon was a challenge! Not only did the translation process face the usual challenges of replicating the author's original intent, but the surtitles also had to be timed to coincide perfectly with the dialogue. Good thing Imago regular Elaine Normandeau was on hand!

Check out this great workshop opportunity from our friends at @quebecdrama.bsky.social! #theatresky

Canadian fantasy classic "A Song for Arbonne" by @guygavrielkay.bsky.social! #canada

Tired of Fairmount and Saint-Viateur? There's plenty more options to check out if you're in Montreal! #montreal

Imago has a history of producing plays in unconventional locales-- The Retreat, a boundary-pushing tale exploring mental health, was performed at the Bain Mathieu, a former public swimming pool. Studio Mile-Ex, the venue for Scorpio Moon, fit the 'abandoned warehouse' setting perfectly! #theatresky

Both graduates of Concordia's Theatre and Development program as well as the National Theatre School, this play was a passion project for playwright Adjani Poirier and director Murdoch Schon. Born of a constrained writing exercise at NTS, it's come a long way since then! #theatresky #montreal

Anybody catch Osheaga this year? If you did, maybe you caught Toronto rock band The Beaches... not only a great band, but also clearly folks with great taste in bagels! #montreal

As part of Imago's commitment to education through theatre, the company created an educational zine to accompany Scorpio Moon, exploring some very topical subjects such as late-stage capitalism, 'selling out', and colourism. Who says art doesn't teach us nothin'? #theatresky

A beautiful tribute to a New Brunswick book lover... this is the kind of community literary project we need more of! #canada

Meet Imago Theatre's Artistic Director, Krista Jackson! Under her leadership, Imago has made clear it's about more than just producing plays; for Scorpio Moon, Jackson spoke to a Vanier College class and chaired bilingual talkbacks discussing social activism. Talk about making a difference!

Not only a great picture highlighting Scorpio Moon's gorgeous set design by Stavri Papadopoulou, but also a key feature of this production's accessibility: surtitles! Thanks to Trellis, Imago was able to hire Elaine Normandeau to translate the piece, bringing it to a whole new audience! #theatresky

Introducing yet another Trellis-funded play, named by Cult MTL as one of the year's 5 best... Imago Theatre's Scorpio Moon! A two-hander dealing with deeply felt intersectional issues, the show was staged in a converted warehouse--a unique theatrical experience if ever there was one! #theatresky

It's the last week of #fantasiafest! Be sure to check out all the amazing genre cinema from Quebec and elsewhere on display! cultmtl.com/2025/07/10-h... #montreal #filmsky

Montrealers, escape the heat with, uh... some hot soup... this week! #montreal
