Festival - The Story of Being Parents

Is your family bursting with energy? Are you running out of ideas for outings with your little ones and teens? Mark your calendars: “Histoire d’être parents” is back from November 14 to 21, and we’ve got a program tailored just for you!

Being a parent means a thousand questions, great joys, little challenges… and above all, an adventure unlike any other! For one week, take the time to play, create, move, take a breather (yes, let’s admit it), and grow together. A 100% free program, featuring numerous workshops requiring registration (unless marked “open to all”), for all ages and interests.
