MUSÉE DE LA PHOTOGRAPHIE DESJARDINS REVIEWS
We enjoyed a lovely visit to this museum. We were very taken by the creative works, especially how nature and color have spoken through the artist. The exhibit was small. The musuem is located centrally in downtown St. Jerome. The works really spoke to me, a teacher, and I was inspired.
Very impressive guided tour that tells the story of photography. We can even try out some principles (like 3D). Hundreds of old and new devices to observe. The photos of the exhibitions are also really touching. We were told the exhibits change a few times a year so we will be going back! Thanks to our super friendly host and host.
Beautiful pictures. Very interesting to see these old cameras.

BIBLIOTHÈQUE PUBLIQUE DE DRUMMONDVILLE REVIEWS
Very well. It would be excellent if there were more "classics", for example, the philosophy books of college and university courses.
This library is WOW! If activities can resume, it will be perfect, with its employees smiling and knowing their stuff.
Me and my daughters ages 6-16 absolutely love our new, quiet, clean, and great service library.

Great place to spend time with kids. Mine 9 years old was really impressed and enjoyed the trip. Old style thematic houses are really special, well maintained and acteurs gives pretty interesting explanation what it was for post office, pharmacy, doctor’s office, barber and a lot more. It has a little farm where you could get by horse forced wagon. There is a little train, ice-cream, donuts, bakery with fresh bread. Worth to spend entire day there! We’re definitely coming back there.
