Activities

In connection with Identity Development

To delve further into this topic

Have students watch the video featuring Boucar Diouf on the EducArt platform.

Planning your visit

Group entrance

The group entrance is located at 2075 Bishop Street. Plan on arriving 30 minutes before the time scheduled for your visit.

School bus

If you are coming by school bus, allow extra time for potential traffic congestion.

Métro station

The Museum is a 5-minute walk from the Guy-Concordia Métro station (Guy exit).

Allow sufficient time

Allow approximately 30 minutes for students to be greeted at the entrance, to go to the cloakroom and washroom, and to be divided into groups.

Subgroups

To facilitate movement through the galleries and ensure that everyone gets a good view of the works, each class will be divided into two subgroups composed of a maximum of 15 students (11 for preschool groups). The class will regroup afterward in the workshop, if applicable.
