Cultural mediation: adapted training for the cultural milieux
Cultural mediation continues to interest cultural groups throughout Quebec. Eva Quintas, project director at Culture pour tous, presented a workshop on this question at Culture Lanaudière on February 9, 2009. She and Jean-Marc Fontan, a sociologist at UQAM and a member of the Groupe de recherche sur la médiation culturelle (GRMC) then offered a two day training on February 17 and 18 in Quebec City to a group of cultural officers of the Villes et villages d’art et de patrimoine (VVAP) network. The GRMC is now formalizing this adapted training offer for the cultural, community and municipal milieux.
