Salon des métiers d’art de Montréal
Montreal Annual Arts and Crafts Show

December 11 - 20, 2015

This year, Salon des métiers d’art de Montréal (SMAM)  is celebrating its 60th anniversary. More than 420 professional exhibitors from many corners of Quebec, as well as other parts of Canada and even from France are participating and showcasing their one-of-the-kind creations. This is a very much anticipated Quebec arts and crafts show which takes place annually at Place Bonaventure just before the winter holiday season and offers an excellent opportunity for the visitors to acquire some unique holiday and Christmas presents.

All works of art at Salon des métiers d’art de Montréal are recognized as "fine crafts" in accordance with the norms and standards of Conseil des métiers d’art du Québec (CMAQ). This makes sure that every piece has been designed and made by artisans in full mastership of their craft.




The visitors will find many practical and very useful objects for the kitchen.

There are also may kiosks with fine clothing.

One will see a number of works from the MANO a MANO project (photo just below), Artisans sans frontière, in Bolivia. You can read about it here. 

This year, the Food Court is the largest ever. Visitors will find many delicacies, and could spend a long time tasting all the food displayed.

There are also alcoholic drinks to discover, like apple and pear ice wine, or honey, tomato, and other types of wine.

Many foods will delight people with a sweet tooth. Those who are more healthy minded would enjoy the cranberry stand. Others will be more excited about cookies or chocolates.
