Description:
In 1933, the government of the province of Québec started its first museum, comprised of the national archives, and natural science and fine arts collections. Eventually the archives and natural science collections were moved, and the museum switched its focus exclusively to art. Today's collection includes Québécois art from several time periods: pre-1900, 1900-1950, 1950-2000, and post-2000. The site itself is spectacular. Two historic buildings are joined by a contemporary structure to offer changing exhibits of more than 20,000 works of art in 12 galleries. Before you leave, enjoy lunch at the café (highlighting Québec produce) and be sure to visit the gift shop.
