    Montréal Space for Life is inviting everyone to the Gardens of Light, a fall "highlight" running from September 8 to October 31. This year it includes a new lighted path through the Botanical Garden's three cultural gardens, each looking at nature from a different perspective. Once night falls, you can explore the newly restored Chinese Garden festooned with immense dragon-shaped lanterns, mythical creatures associated with water. Then you can continue to the First Nations Garden, to enjoy a new multimedia experience set to the intense heartbeat of the cycle of life. To finish off your evening, stroll through the heart of Japanese Garden and take the time to appreciate the natural beauties around you in the poetic lighting. Read more

    Throughout this week, CASC is introducing a refreshed look and feel, beginning with a new logo.  As an advocate on behalf of Canada’s science centres, we feel it is important to project an image that is current and professional and demonstrates confidence in ourselves and our members’ abilities to inspire a creative and prosperous Canada through science and technology engagement.

    Our new graphic look is an enhancement of a logo developed in 2010 and is extended throughout all of our communications for consistency. When potential partners see our visual identities, they will know that collectively, we are innovative, creative and trusted by Canadians. 

    We’d like to extend our thanks to TWG Communications for creating the new visual look.

    For a closer look at our new logo and usage guidelines, click here.
