A brilliant experience - Excellent museum with an amazing and thoughtful exhibit on the local indigenous people. The exhibit of art of the city of Montreal itself was also wonderful.

Small museum with nice exhibits - This museum does a nice job telling the history of the indigenous people. It doesn’t seem they have much of a permanent collection so I’d be sure to check the exhibits before attending. They have a nice cafe for a coffee and snack.

Well presented exhibits - Took advantage of the Free to the Public Wednesday nights offer. You still have to book your admission, but it was free. When attending this, you don't have access to the whole museum, but we enjoyed what we saw. We saw the Indigenous Voices of Today, which we found very moving, and well presented. We also saw MOTHER MEMORY CELLOPHANE-Séamus Gallagher, which was interesting, but not as meaningful to us. We had a good visit.

meh - Not the best museum I've ever been to. The Good: It was clean. Well labeled. Easy to navigate. The Bad: It was small. The third floor was awful. We didn't feel like we got good value for our experience.
