Our mission is to build a strong, sustainable and cohesive community through cultural, educational and social programs and by bringing together the diverse population of the Montreal region and Quebec more widely.

We welcome everyone, regardless of their place of residence.

We’re independent and depend heavily on volunteers and private donors for our vitality.

Come visit our computer centre, library stacks and reading room weekdays from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm.
