ProjetMILL is making use of industrial-era spaces for culture, arts, and learning about Montreal's industrial heritage and identity.

ProjetMILL is as a non-for-profit initiated to support and ignite excitement surrounding ExpoMILL, a pop-up exhibition showcasing industrial machinery and local artists.

Its mission? To draw people to understanding our city throught curated events, exhibitions and special projets. We started in 2024 in the heart and debutes of the Lachine Canal, unveiling a hidden gem at Mill street, known previously as the Hydrolic Lots.

ProjetMILL aims to captivate diverse demographics, breathing new life into these central and obsolete sites, including Silo no5 and Farine 5 Roses.

With it’s 200th anniversary, the summer of 2025 was focused on aising awareness, hosting engaging events, and animating all along the Lachine Canal.

If you are arriving by car and have limited mobility, there is the possibility of a drop-off on site and a valet service. Unfortunatly, there are stairs to enter. Please contact us if you need assistance.

The Founding team

With the support of the Jeunes volontaires Program (Government of Québec), Jules and Andrea embarked on a transformative journey to revitalize a cultural and historical space at 785 rue Mill, in Montréal (Québec), a once-thriving industrial building now in disrepair.

Jules, with a background in engineering and architecture, is enthusiastic about exploring new horizons in sustainable construction, historic preservation, and sustainable solutions research. Similarly, Andrea, a classically trained musician, is passionate about culturally relevant artistic creations and community engagement, aspiring to cultivate environments that celebrate our musical heritage.

Guiding our team through this endeavor is G. Scott MacLeod, our esteemed mentor for the Jeunes volontaires bursary. Scott, recognized for his multidisciplinary artistic contributions, brings invaluable expertise and guidance to support Jules and Andrea as they navigate this learning experience.

Together, with Scott's mentorship and their dedication to learning and growth, Jules and Andrea are poised to make meaningful contributions to the revitalization of 785 rue Mill and the surrounding community.
