Trempe, took us on a wonderful tour of most of the 1% art (% of cost of
building the Glen dedicated to art), plus quite a number of other works such as
some originals by Picasso, some Matisse reproductions as well as originals by
some well known Montreal artists (Shelley Miller), some works from the old
hospitals like the statue of Queen Victoria, some works by the staff and
volunteers, as well as many artifacts. The tour went from 2 to 3:45pm.
