Event description

We’re delighted to invite you to the opening of a new exhibition in the MEM’s Kiosque, titled A Ray of Hope? The Institut du Radium de Montréal Against Cancer. In the company of the Atelier d’histoire Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve, the team behind the project, discover the tragic fate of this little-known 20th-century institution which contributed to Montréal’s reputation as a city of knowledge and scientific research.
