Place Émilie-Gamelin : 200 ans de cohabitation
Located in the heart of the Latin Quarter, few places embody the crisis of homelessness as intensely as Place Émilie-Gamelin in Montreal. The Place is widely discussed in the media and is often referred to as a derelict area, plagued by the illegal presence of the homeless. Created in partnership with the Service aux collectivités de l’UQAM (UQAM Community Services Department), Exeko and the Écomusée du fier monde, the exhibition Place Émilie-Gamelin: 200 ans de cohabitation sociale [200 Years of Social Cohabitation] seeks to trace this reality in the history of the area, which has always been a site of great social diversity.
