| - Came here on Free Museum Day to check it out because I happened to be in MTL on the day and you can't argue with free. I totally agree with Kandi R. that I would definitely not go out of your way to see this museum. If it had not been free, I would have been disappointed to have paid money to see these exhibits. The first floor features a lot of First Nations items including some cool boots, attire and household articles. The second floor featured an exhibit the Jewish history of MTL, which was interesting, but the articles displayed seemed really ordinary and similar to what you'd find going through your Jewish relatives scrap books. No high art pieces, just photos and artifacts. The top floor featured photography by a modern artist, which was very good, but, IMO, not really of the I'd pay $20 to see this in a museum style, more of like what you'd see in an art gallery (for free). Come when it's free, maybe, but I would not go back here.
