Celebrations of Montreal\u2019s 375th<\/sup> anniversary are well underway with the recent launch of several new and ongoing events incorporating digital projections, banners and other types of graphics and signage.<\/p>\n

Every night, \u2018Cit\u00e9 M\u00e9moire\u2019 involves the projection mapping of poetic and dreamlike images and words inspired by the city\u2019s history (example pictured, above). The public is encouraged to encounter the projections throughout Old Montreal and download an accompanying app for further details.<\/p>\n

<\/a>From Feb. 23 to Mar. 11, \u2018Curling en Lumi\u00e8re\u2019 invited families to try their hand at tossing curling rocks outdoors against a brilliant backdrop of light and sound (pictured, right). Hosted in Place des Festivales and the Quartier des Spectacles, the activity was presented as part of the 375th<\/sup> Hivernales festival.<\/p>\n

During the same period, the Illuminart project saw interactive and immersive illuminated installations placed throughout the Quartier des Spectacles and elsewhere in the borough of Ville-Marie.<\/p>\n

From Mar. 13 to 28, the Centre Culturel Georges-Vanier offers a series of creative workshops on canvas painting and printing, culminating in the collective decoration of a 1,400-m (4,593-ft) long garland for the streets of the Pointe-Sainte-Charles neighbourhood (concept pictured, left).<\/p>\n

<\/a>From Mar. 16 to Apr. 16, the Biblioth\u00e8que et Archives Nationales du Qu\u00e9bec (BANQ) is celebrating diversity with \u2018Aime Comme Montr\u00e9al,\u2019 a photography project featuring images of 60 Montreal-based multicultural couples. The exhibition has been mounted in some of the city\u2019s most iconic locations.<\/p>\n

On Mar. 20, the city\u2019s Notre-Dame Basilica debuted Aura, a unique, immersive digital multimedia experience designed by the award-winning Moment Factory. The show uses an illuminated path to draw visitors into the neo-Gothic building, followed by a mix of light and sound.<\/p>\n

Finally, from May 17 to Sept. 2, Compagnie Finzi Pasca will present \u2018Montr\u00e9al Avudo,\u2019 a free projection mapping show at the city\u2019s old port. Images representing the history of the St. Lawrence River will be projected onto 94 shipping containers, as well as on 30 x 11.5-m (98 x 38-ft) liquid \u2018screens\u2019 created by water jets (example pictured, below).<\/p>\n
