Established in 1995, the Fondation Derouin/Jardins du Précambrien is a non-profit organization whose principal mission is to develop, preserve and enhance an extensive site, called Les Jardins du Précambrien, by producing and disseminating an annual artistic and site development program.
More specifically, this mission is fulfilled by
A substantial program made up of visual artists and guests who are experienced practitioners of poetry, children’s literature, theatre and literature, as well as performances, concerts, exhibitions and talks, is scheduled for each symposium. The Fondation thus cultivates a multidisciplinary approach in which the visual arts interrelate with other disciplines such as music and poetry to offer visitors an all-encompassing experience. A full range of reception facilities has been set up to provide visitors with a quality experience in an environment tailored to their needs. Every year, over 15,000 visitors come and discover the works created by the guest artists, and attend the special events planned in connection with the symposiums along the three-plus kilometres of trails that have been laid out. The Jardins du Précambrien site represents a socially innovative space for creating, where ecology and sustainability have been the guiding principles since the very beginnings.SITE OPENING HOURS July 6 to August 18, 2013: open 7 days/week, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. August 24 to October 20, 2013: Saturday and Sunday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. plus Monday, September 2 and Monday, October 14, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. |
