Nuit blanche 2016 : The Centre on Red Alert!
On the agenda for the evening: an art opening, a photobooth, climate hockey, dancing and other fun-filled surprises sure to fire you up!
On February 27 from 8 pm to 1 am, dive into a red-hot atmosphere and ponder the consequences of climate change while having a blast at the Centre for Sustainable Development!
The blush of shame
Discover The True Cost of Oil, a striking exhibition by Garth Lenz. The grand opening starts at 8 pm sharp, with Steven Guilbeault, senior director at Equiterre, presenting the international artist and his project. Prepare to be shocked by astonishing stats highlighting the consequences of climate change on tourism and agriculture.
Red carpet glory and climate hockey
Dare to shoot nine times in one minute to score a goal against climate change in this precision hockey game… and earn a chance to win a Habs jersey! Strike a pose on the red carpet next to a string of great Canadian icons threatened by climate change — your chance to snap a selfie with a polar bear, with top environmentalist David Suzuki or with the real live Steven Guilbeault!
Dance 'til you blush and quench your thirst at the Red bar
Burn up our dance floor in the spirit of past and present Canadian soirées thanks to ENvironnement JEUnesse. Parched? Come on down to Marius’ Red Bar and take a sip of their tasty made in Provence drinks at the hottest polar party in town! Afterwards, don’t forget to walk your cocktail through our interactive exhibit to learn about Quebec’s greenest building.
