Montreal and Quebec City

Montreal & Quebec City

Canada’s French province contains within it small world charm in conjunction with a scientific mecca. Montreal is home to the Biodome, Space Camp and the Montreal Science Center, and many historical events ranging from the FLQ crisis to Prime Minister Pierre Elliot Trudeau's funeral to the 1976 Summer Olympics. Quebec, primarily French in culture and language, encourages an appreciation for tradition, particularly in its music. Combining various Celtic, jazz, classical and rhythm, summer visits to Quebec offer a cornucopia of musical, as well as, cultural fusion. Immerse your students in a vivid culture of art and science.
