Au cours des dernières années, ARCMTL, un organisme artistique et patrimonial montréalais, a mené des projets de recherche pour explorer l'histoire méconnue de la musique et de la culture noires de Montréal. Dans ce cadre, ARCMTL a organisé de nombreuses activités avec des partenaires communautaires locaux afin de mieux impliquer le public dans cette quête visant à combler les lacunes de cette histoire.

Venez assister à une présentation de Louis Rastelli et Chloe Martin d'ARCMTL qui aborderont certaines des activités, comme des ateliers de fanzines, des émissions de radio et le site Web cartographique « Nuits de Montréal », qui contribuent à raconter l'histoire des lieux et des personnes qui ont fait rayonner cette culture.
