After Pointe-aux-Trembles, Hochelaga, Ahuntsic, Montréal-Nord, and Centre-Sud (the list is getting delightfully long!), it’s now time to visit LaSalle to highlight the realities, challenges, and socio-ecological transition initiatives of this truly unique neighborhood.
Aboard two buses, we’ll tour the neighborhood’s various districts for a hands-on experience of Lasallian civic and community engagement before wrapping up the day with a friendly and festive happy hour.
This tour is organized by a diverse group of dedicated individuals in LaSalle. Thank you to the Bronx Catalyst, Destination Travail, Nouvelles d’ici, the LaSalle Social Development Table, and the Borough for hosting us. Many other organizations and projects will also be featured on March 21—join us!
