Tyndale is now offering telephone support for clients who are working to adapt their resumes and enter the workforce (all the more crucial now as more many Canadians find themselves out of work). They are checking in with families and offering online playgroups, and developing resources for Psychosocial assistance, Food Security and Online Learning Tools - contact them directly to receive that list. They are also reaching out directly to seniors in the community (more often than they already were!) in order to be that lifeline for folks who are more isolated and afraid than ever. If you are ready and able to provide some financial support to an organization doing a ton of good right here in Montreal, in Little Burgundy, you can donate directly to Tyndale here: https://www.canadahelps.org/en/dn/488

There's a free children's library upstairs and free 2 hour long classes including snacks several times a week depending on the age. I'm not sure about parking but it's walking distance to metro Georges Vanier. Great for the kids to run amok in the gym during the winter months and for meeting other parents. The after school program seems to be doing well. The building could use a little TLC but it provides a GREAT service to the local community. Especially to those who probably don't use Yelp and are new to the area.

I keep thinking this is the kind of quirky place millennials who love rewatching "Harold and Maude" would love. You pay $12 entry fee, and are given a fancy map of the place, and a headset to listen to descriptions at each of the numbers along the disjointed path. Starting with color photocopies of world famous art. (Never seen that before). The very random art collection is disbursed through the building, as are some working artists and their work. There were also a couple rooms with wax figures of some famous persons through history. It's a mish-mash of all kinds of random stuff you'd find at yard sales, or scavenger hunts. In the attic space, more randomness, including a mini theatre that happened to be playing old Downton Abbey episodes while we were there. The best part of the place we didn't see much of: that they provide studio space for 50 artists.
