WebsiteThe Saint-Gilles Cultural Space opened its doors to the public for its first annual program in the fall of 2021 as a result of a personal initiative. The director of what is now the NPO ECSG / SGCC (Espace culturel Saint-Gilles / Saint-Gilles Cultural Centre), acquired a former Methodist-Presbyterian church built in 1830 in the scenic and heritage area of Cushing, Brownsburg-Chatham, whose space is perfectly suited to hosting small musical and theatrical ensembles as well as other artistic groups. The venue’s character and architecture provide exceptional acoustics and allow patrons to experience events in an intimate and cozy atmosphere while providing them access to this historic building on the old Front of Chatham that has played a leading role in the region over the years.
In this splendid building, dating back almost 200 years, able to accommodate up to 125 people, we offer to citizens of the Regional County Municipality of Argenteuil and beyond, musical performances (classical, jazz, chanson, folk, etc.), literary events (storytelling, poetry, slam, author’s booths and workshops, etc.), arthouse cinema (partnership with the Ciné-Club La Branche, member of the Association des cinémas parallèles du Québec), visual arts events (openings, exhibitions, workshops, conferences, etc.), and much more.

Noémie Raymond-Friset, cello & Michel-Alexandre Broekaert, piano
United by a deep passion for music, Duo Cavatine is above all a long story of friendship. Their duo name is inspired by Poulenc’s sonata for cello and piano, the very first work they played together.
Praised for their sensitive yet dynamic personalities, these “two fabulous young artists […] merge their talents for our great pleasure. Their interpretation is refined, full of energy and filled with sweetness.” (Journal des Citoyens)

The Nine Maidens
Espace culturel Saint-Gilles, 562, Rte des Outaouais, Brownsburg-Chatham
Ensemble Ménestrel • Janelle Lucyk, voice & violin • Kerry Bursey, voice & lute
Through voices, a myriad of plucked strings, and some violin, Ménestrel performs old music in an intimate manner, with ayres and ballads recounting the transience of good fortune in the life of a voyager. In The Nine Maidens, these English-language folk songs provide vivid imagery of age-old expeditions, daring escapes and voyaging delights. In response to the action packed folk songs, baroque airs offer reflection and represent the inward feelings of the heroines. The program includes music by Purcell, Dowland, Gilles Binchois, and Guillaume de Machaut.
