  • Une Acadie québécoise
    The exhibition provides a better understanding of the importance and particularities of the Acadian presence in Québec. Today, over a million Quebecers are of Acadian origin. Places like the Îles-de-la-Madeleine, Côte-Nord and villages such as Saint-Grégoire-de-Nicolet, Saint-Gervais-de-Bellechasse, Saint-Jacques-de-Montcalm, L'Acadie, Carleton and Bonaventure still bear witness to this Acadian presence in Québec.
  • Lumière sur les Acadiens
    A unique poetic atmosphere. The Musée acadien du Québec presents Lumière sur les Acadiens, an immersive digital activity that uses light and shadow to tell the story of the Great Upheaval. Let yourself be told the fabulous Acadian story in a unique poetic atmosphere! The activity is included in your regular visit to the Museum.
  • Portraits vivants
    Les 5M, a group of 5 Gaspesian museums, is delighted to present the digital installation Portraits vivants. A collaborative project between Manoir Le Boutillier, Site historique du Banc-de-Pêche-de-Paspébiac, Parc du Bourg de Pabos, Musée acadien du Québec and Musée de la Gaspésie, Portraits vivants invites you to a surreal experience! Inside a painting, a character comes to life... and then speaks to you!
