MONTREAL RESOURCE DIRECTORY 2012/2013 • THE SENIOR TIMES • 37 Serenity, music in the heart of the city There are no hard edges in Bourgie Hall. From the Tiffany stained-glass windows to the twisted decora- tive grillwork to the elegantly curved bal- cony, the music hall has been designed to instill a sense a peace. Even the chairs on the main level, wide Residence and comfortable, have rounded armrests. Anna You can hear someone whispering two rows away, but the sound is muffled and not at all distracting during a performance. And performances there will be. Concert series include the Tiffany Concerts, Musical 5 à 7, Consonance and Dissonance and spotlights on French and Latin American music. As well, the 444-seat Bourgie Hall offers dozens of free lectures and films. The Victorian building began life in 1894 when the Er- skine and American Church moved from Peel and Ste. Catherine, now the site of the Dominion Square build- ing. Deconsecrated in 2004 and acquired by the Mon- treal Museum of Fine Arts in 2008, the national historic Your tickets? Your passport? Your vaccines??? site boasts a rare-to-Montrealers Byzantine-style dome. It is linked to the Jean-Noël Desmarais Pavilion of the MMFA by an underground gallery. Beginning in September, Bourgie Hall will be open to visitors wishing to view the windows and architecture on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to noon. There is no charge. 1339 Sherbrooke W.

Tremblay & Villeneuve Wilderness and wildlife in Montreal The tip of Montreal Island was a massive landfill until the luscious wetland near Pointe Claire was taken under the protective wing of the St. Lawrence Valley Natural History Society and restored to its original beauty. Those once-garbage-filled 11 hectares are now home to more than 115 species native to Quebec, and the pub- lic is invited to wander carefully tended paths to meet the animals. The award-winning Ecomuseum is a private, non- profit organization with a mandate to protect Quebec’s wildlife and flora and educate the public. The zoo is ac- tive in field research and conservation programs. For information on educational activities, visit ecomuseum.ca $15; seniors $12; children 3-15, $9.
