You have children and want to visit a city where culture is fun, everywhere and accessible? Head to Rouyn-Noranda, cultural capital.
Here, culture is child’s play!
There are many opportunities to enjoy family-friendly cultural experiences all year long. And for the summer of 2022, we offer a fun RALLY to do with your family, which will give you a nice REWARD.
- The Musée d’art de Rouyn-Noranda, a must for your family outings. With its exhibitions, activity books for children and a family area for a moment of creativity and relaxation.
- The Dumulon General Store and the St. Georges Russian Orthodox Church, which offer a lively experience through an animated visit of these two heritage sites.
- The Municipal Library offer a peaceful yet stimulating place for families: story times, readings in the park, shows, computer lab, LEGO table and comfortable reading spaces!
- L’Écart, an artist-run center where it’s easy to enjoy guided and animated tours and exhibitions and where children are welcome.
- Festivals that offer families the chance to find moments in their programming where both young and old know how to have fun: Festival de musique émergente, Festival des Guitares du Monde, Festival pyromusical Osisko en lumière, Festival du cinéma international.
- Art galleries and artworks in restaurants.
- Public art everywhere: murals, sculptures and artistic rest areas.
- Historical tours to walk and listen to.
- For the active people: funny sculptures on the trails of Lake Rouyn or the Randonne-Rit, modules to play in each neighbourhood, including one that represents a small boomtown, a large pedestrian zone animated all summer long in the downtown area with artworks on the ground that become games for the little ones, public pianos to play on.
Whether for a short or long stay, Rouyn-Noranda is the place to bring your family to live a rich cultural experience, with the added bonus of a large choice of outdoor activities.
