This mural stands at 1349 rue Notre-Dame, in the Lachine borough of Montreal, Canada. It was created in 2014 by the artist collective Artducommun, and it was produced in partnership with the Maison des Jeunes l'Escalier de Lachine, a youth centre in the area, as part of the city's Programme graffitis et murales.
What to expect
The work is a piece of street art, so it is best seen on foot, in the street where it hangs on the wall. It makes a simple visit: you can walk up, take your time with the image, and continue on your way. Because it is a public mural rather than an enclosed site, there is no entry to plan for.
Around the mural
- Lachine: the mural is in one of Montreal's western boroughs, so it suits a visit that combines art with a walk through a local neighbourhood.
- The city's murals: the work belongs to a municipal programme, and the city keeps a public record of its murals, which can help you find others nearby.
- Community ties: the partnership with a local youth centre means the piece is tied to the people who live and work in the area.
If you are already exploring Lachine or the wider city, the mural is a short and easy stop. Check the city's mural listing for the most up-to-date details about the work before you go.
