This show, at the Montreal's Place Bonaventure, is a unique celebration of the heritage architectural arts and crafts. Maestria gives professionals and the general public the opportunity to meet specialized craftsmen who mastered the essential traditional techniques.

On the program, promoting rare and traditional expertise that is required in the heritage and also contemporary buildings of quality. The Salon presents a rich blend of wisdom and constructive energy, an abundance of exceptional encounters under the signs of continuity, values, identity and originality.

Since 2011, the Quebec Conseil des métiers d'art (CMAQ) has pursued an important work of identifying and recognizing artisans working in the architectural and heritage sectors. These holders of specialized know-how, of leading-edge expertise, are now part of a network of professionals recognized by the public, contractors, architects and professionals.

In response to the new mandate and the current real passion for heritage professions, the CMAQ proposed the Rendez-vous Maestria that allows professionals and the general public to meet specialized craftsmen who display traditional techniques essential for both contemporary creation and specialized interventions to support the Quebec's architectural heritage.

This new annual event is an open door on the diversity of the professionals who collaborate in protecting the richness of our common heritage linked to architecture and specialized crafts. On the program: exhibitors, conferences of professionals and experts who offer not only traditional know-how but also the contemporary quality.
