Come discover the Our Lady of the Cape Shrine through our stained glass tour,  our podcast, and our Visual Arts Symposium!

Religious Heritage Days, September 5, 6, and 7, 2025, offer the opportunity to explore the Discovery Trail in partnership with Culture 3R, which includes five circuits to discover history, heritage, culture, stained glass windows, famous figures, and great wonders.

The 8th edition of the Trois-Rivières Visual Arts Symposium, featuring 60 artists exhibiting various media, will be presented in the Sanctuary gardens, with an art workshop in the reception pavilion and an awards ceremony.

We look forward to seeing you there!
