This February, take part in a family edition of the Art from the Archives workshop series. In collaboration with the team at Library and Archives Canada (LAC), create your own Olympic poster inspired by Montréal’s graphic design of the 1960s and 1970s.
Make the most of your visit by participating in our Together at LAC: Explore the Winter Games event, happening at the same time and location. (Details to follow)
What is the Art from the Archives series?
