- Located in downtown Shawinigan, along the Saint-Maurice River, this cultural center invites you to discover the culture and arts of the First Nations. Its very place is rich in meaning: it is the place where the Atikamekw rested before undertaking the wood carrying on the river.
- Their exposition Nikanik – Empreinte des pensionnats Autochtones, presents work of various artists as well as interpretation panels related to events and history with complementary information via QR codes.
- There is also a diversified program with free monthly activities, animations and group activities for everyone like their fun beading activity. An excellent way to learn without the clichés and prejudices.
- You can buy first nation souvenirs and dream catcher production kits at the boutique.
PLEASE NOTE: the schedule may vary. We suggest that you contact the center to confirm their business hours.
