The Saint-Lazare Library is proud to present an
exceptional ship modelling exhibition by members
of The Wood 'n' Sail Ship Modelling Workshop. You
will share the passion of these craftsmen and be
impressed by the quality of the
scale models of tall ships that have
marked naval history. To reproduce
these tall ships to scale, the modellers
had to search through historic
records to find the original plans
and authenticate every detail. All
those who wish to learn more
about the navigational world
of times gone by are invited
to come aboard for an
unforgettable weekend!
Numerology with Mady Létourneau
• • • Thursday, October 21
At the community centre 1301 Rue du Bois
For adults
In French only at 7 p.m.
Numbers never lie and they are infinite. Numerology is
not a fad, it is a human science in its own right. Although
seductive, this approach is concrete, rational and realistic.
It should not be confused with some too often esoteric
and divinatory discourses heard elsewhere. Numerology
answers our questions as to the personality of the
individual and the nature of his life cycles! Where am I at?
What are the life cycles of my destiny? What is my spiritual
and genetic evolution as I progress on my life path? What
roles do my soul, heredity and intimate self play? Do
we all have our own veil of forgetfulness? Numerologist
Mady Létourneau will help us find the answers. Together,
we will look at what the year 2010 has in store for us. In
numerology, it is a year “3” which is a lucky number. So we
will see what our respective chances are of discovering our
sixth sense.
Hubert, the trapper
• • • Saturday, October 23
At the community centre
1301 Rue du Bois
For the whole family
Bilingual show at 7 p.m.
To the sound of traditional music, children will gather around Hubert
the trapper and sit on bear skins. They will fraternize and eat maple
candy.
Then, the trapper will tell them what happened when he opened
this chest containing a suit, a letter and all the items that people
used in New France. They will talk about their respective society and
compare their way of life and the world they live in, their clothes, their
trades and currency, their homes, their tools and techniques, their
means of transportation and communication, their beliefs and
religions, their customs and diet.
Children will get to touch the fur skins, see how an “American
Indian lighter” works, smell the hay and taste the bread that
American Indians made. Then it will be time to say goodbye.
