Cities are not shaped by planning alone, but by a collaborative ethos of making, tending, and sharing. For a second year, the CCA Bazaar opens its doors to the community, bringing together the independent businesses, makers, and community organizations that give Montreal’s neighbourhoods their character. From books and records to flowers and ceramics, the Bazaar offers a mix of thoughtfully made and second-hand finds. In the spirit of circularity, we will also be selling a variety of our own items from daily operations at the CCA, including archival supplies, picture frames, and other materials—all in need of a new home.

Visit our exhibitions free of charge or join a free family workshop to help build a pop-up cardboard city in Parc Baile—or inside in case of rain.

Please bring cash if you can, as some vendors may not accept debit or credit cards.

Bring your own bag or purchase a new CCA tote with proceeds supporting our youth programs.

Community donation drive

This year, the Bazaar also includes a donation drive for Resilience Montréal. With fall and winter approaching, we invite you to bring gently used warm clothing or non-perishable food. A list of needed items can be found here.
