28th Edition of Parle-moi d’amour Montréal - Les Impatients

28th Edition of Parle-moi d’amour Montréal

From November 6 to 27, Les Impatients invites you to the 28th edition of Parle-moi d’amour Montréal.

Presented by Loto-Québec, the Parle-moi d’amour Montréal benefit exhibition brings together artworks donated by renowned artists, participants in our workshops, and collectors. For this 28th edition, we are delighted to have Jennifer Alleyn as and Laurent Lamarche as host artists.

In total, there are more than 300 works for you to discover in our exhibition hall during the opening night and throughout the three weeks of the exhibition.

Starting November 6 at 8 a.m., you can participate in the silent auction. You’ll be able to bid online on every artwork in the exhibition, and the event will conclude with a live auction on November 26, hosted by auctioneer Laurent E. Berniard and featuring some thirty works selected by our committee.

All proceeds will help Les Impatients continue their mission: to offer free weekly workshops to more than 900 people living with mental health challenges at 27 locations across Quebec.

Once again this year, Les Impatients would like to express their gratitude to the artists, collectors, and participants who, by donating one of their works, are helping to demystify mental health issues.
