Home of the circus by Cirque Hors Piste
A circus hub that brings together social circus, open training, creative projects, and circus recreation in Hochelaga-Maisonneuve.
Thanks to a unique partnership with the Mercier–Hochelaga-Maisonneuve borough, Cirque Hors Piste is managing the Emmanuel-Arthur-Doucet building to develop a unique creative space for youth, artists, and the community.
Social Circus Activities
In addition to our social circus intervention programs, the CHP Venue will also bring together other social circus organizations: Centre Sablon and the Transition école-vie active en déficience physique (TEVA) program from the CIUSSS du Centre-Sud-de-l’Île-de-Montréal. This coexistence will facilitate more interactions between youth, practitioners, and social circus managers.
