An International Centre
\nDedicated to Puppetry Arts<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Maison internationale des arts de la marionnette (MIAM\u2014International House of Puppetry Arts) is a joint initiative of Casteliers, a specialized presenter of puppet theatre, and the Qu\u00e9bec Puppeteer Association (Association qu\u00e9b\u00e9coise des marionnettistes\u2014AQM). This creative hub, which also serves as a performance venue, and a training and cultural mediation centre, is entirely dedicated to the 11th art! It offers a wide range of services to professional artists and the general public, including a production lab, a puppet-building workshop, a multi-functional space, as well as specialized resources and know-how. On top of that, it is located right next to the Robert-Bourassa Library which houses an outstanding, specialized collection of works on puppetry.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The MIAM is a unique place where members of the local, national and international communities are always welcome. Casteliers and the AQM have their offices in the building and Casteliers is the emphyteutic owner.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The MIAM\u2019s primary mission is to support the creation and development of puppetry, to make this art form better known and to promote it nationally and internationally.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With a puppet-building workshop and a production lab housed in the same building, the MIAM offers a unique research space for puppeteers. Its rental space and activities run by the founders, partners and users are wide-ranging, impromptu and always evolving. It offers artistic residencies, professional training workshops, master classes and lectures.<\/p>\n
