SOCIAL EVENING AT THE POINTE-À-CALLIÈRE MUSEUM
Wednesday July 20 - 19:00 to 22:00
350, place Royale

Cocktail, socializing, film presentation and intriguing underground tour of an archaeological crypt, open to the first 250 delegates who confirmed their presence to the event. The Museum rises above the birthplace of Montreal (first known as Ville-Marie), established as a fur trading post in 1611, a base for further French exploration in North America, before becoming one of the first permanent French settlements in the New World in 1642. The Museum also houses evidence of more than 1,000 years of human activity. Canapés and one free drink will be served. There will be a cash bar for extra drinks.

Delegates should make their own way there and back from the events as transportation will not be provided. The 515 bus next to IASCL Venue (bus stop on Berri near Sainte-Catherine) brings you directly to the Museum's door. Last bus to downtown in the evening: 22:00.
