L’Affichiste is where Montreal’s history meets the timeless allure of graphic art. As the city’s only vintage poster gallery, it transforms advertising ephemera into celebrated artifacts of design. Housed in a light-drenched space dating back to the 1830s near the Notre Dame Basilica, this gallery invites visitors to linger among treasures from the Belle Époque to Mid-Century Modern eras, alongside a growing collection of contemporary works.

From bold Art Deco statements to charming Mid-Century designs, the gallery’s curated collection spans decades and styles, each piece telling its own visual story. Posters, once fleeting tools of persuasion, here become enduring pieces of cultural history.
