Skiing and Culture Merge at Le Massif
Even the restaurant gets in on the action presenting skiers with regional, healthy fare served in an artistic arrangement (no fried foods here). In cooperation with Baie-Sainte-Paul's Galerie d'art Iris, Le Massif will present Panoramas and Paintbrushes – A Mountain Symposium on February 10.
A dozen artists will gather in the Summit and Base Lodges to meet and chat with skiers about their various mediums. Le Massif's own skier artist Jean-Francois Racine has successfully combined his two passions, skiing and art, at the area. You can find him all season long, with canvas on a "skeasal," his version of an easel using skis in the snow. He has developed some unusual techniques which allow him to work in oil on canvas slopeside and take advantage of the fantastic scenery all around the ski area.
