Papier remains accessible, both to beginner collectors and to the general public: admission is free, as are the fair’s talks, tours and catalogue.

This year’s Gallery Hop Montreal is taking place in conjunction with Papier15. The Canadian Art Foundation will have a booth at Papier15 where you can learn about all of the MTL Hop events, and many Hop tours and talks will start at the fair. The two major gallery tours offered, in either English or French, are of the Belgo Building and Griffintown/Old Montreal. Many other galleries are participating, and you can find a list of them with their addresses by going to the event’s website.
