Mouvement de passage is an artistic and humanistic project born from a desire to bring a sense of wonder back into vulnerable individuals’ daily lives in care settings through dance, music, engagement and non-verbal communication.

For the past 10 years, the artists of Mouvement de passage have offered musical and dance performances in the corridors, rooms and common areas of long-term care centres (CHSLDs), connecting with people experiencing a loss of independence and/or living with neurocognitive disorders. These improvised encounters spark moments of humour, tenderness and poetry.

In addition to visits to CHSLDs, Mouvement de passage takes the form of a research project with McGill University and mediation workshops for families and loved ones.
