Its expandedprogramming, rich in cultural content, drew close to 100,000 visitors. 63 of 77 free events in <strong>2012</strong>had cultural elements with support from 26 organizations, a third of which are resident in the localMercier–Hochelaga-Maisonneuve borough. Over 3,000 artists performed in 9 multi-purpose areastotalling over 300,000 square feet of surface!Some of the most popular events included:• The “First Fridays” series featuring street cuisine and privately imported wines the first Fridayof each month.• Expérience MTL with its eclectic music programming and stage powered by sustainable energysources.• The Montréal Symphony Orchestra under Maestro Kent Nagano, unquestionably the season’shigh point, attracting close to 20,000 people.22
Culture Travels Along La Ligne Bleue“La Ligne Bleue” does not refer only to the blue line of the metro system serving fourcity boroughs. It’s also an amazing network of art and culture venues across the area,shedding light on Montréal’s diversity.The partnership came about from cultural players wishing to make their presenceknown across the metropolis, while allowing residents to have fun with technology,and promoting public transit. The organization seeks to build and deepen ties withthe community, and make it aware of the artistic, cultural and heritage wealth thatabounds in the boroughs. This calls for participation from all: businesses, communityassociations, municipal representatives and citizens themselves.La Ligne Bleue is now made up of 21 purveyors of culture, providing more than 15,000activities per year to over 1.7 million people!Take a Book, Leave a Bookon the Streets of CDN–NDGThere are eight of them along the street, in public areas, by the metro stationsor at the Accès Montréal office in the Côte-des-Neiges—Notre-Dame-de-Grâceborough. They’re “book boxes” and they’ve struck joy in the hearts of localswho want to share their love of reading. The concept of free exchange of booksamongst neighbours is quite simple: drop a great read in the book box andfind one for yourself. Bring it back at some point … or choose not to. Nofees, no registration, no obligation.A partnership with Libérez les livres! of Québec, the program encouragesreading, fellowship and citizen participation. Who knows whatcan come of it … perhaps a reading community drawn together bythese free, self-serve boxes!23
