In this visually rich photo-essay by YourStory, the McCord Stewart Museum in Montreal invites viewers into a compelling conversation between history and modernity. The feature showcases four powerful exhibitions: Indigenous Voices of Today: Knowledge, Trauma, Resilience, which centers on Indigenous community experiences and aspirations; Costume Balls: Dressing Up History, 1870–1927, unveiling layers of appropriation and exclusion through period attire; Pounding the Pavement: Montreal Street Photography, a vibrant chronicle of the city’s streets across eras; and Little Burgundy – Evolving Montreal, tracing cultural shifts in a dynamic neighborhood. 

Through curator insights and evocative imagery, the museum positions itself as a bridge between legacy and progress, engaging audiences through meaningful storytelling. Its ongoing PhotoSparks series continues to celebrate creativity, innovation, and the power of visual narrative.
