Until June 15, 2025, at the Musée de Charlevoix, the Les Enfants exhibit immerses visitors in a colourful world brimming with life. On the museum’s mezzanine, Alain Bissonnette’s canvases and sculptures give rise to a gallery of astonishing characters of improbable shapes: long noses, multiple fingers and displaced looks. Imagination toys with reality, giving unexpected allure to plants, animals and things. To enrich the visit, a Search and Find game is a chance to discover the stories behind each work. A fun experience for young and old alike.

Originally from Lac-Mégantic, Alain Bissonnette (1945-2020) devoted his life to the visual arts after a career as a drafter. With a talent for painting, sculpting and drawing, he has left in his wake a joyously unbridled universe, imbued with humour, poetry and freedom. Through Les Enfants, the Musée de Charlevoix pays tribute to a creator whose work continues to leave its mark.

These exhibits are an excellent way to discover the culture and history of Charlevoix.
