Great news! The exhibition is staying open until April 5th. Imagine Van Gogh was supposed to wrap-up on March 1st but due to its explosive success, the event’s coordinators decided to extend the show. According to the exhibition’s news release, “Montreal is under the spell of Van Gogh.” I mean, can you blame us?! Imagine Van Gogh features ceiling to floor murals, boasting fan favourites like “Starry Night” and “Sunflowers.” On top of viewing beautiful artwork, the Imagine Van Gogh exhibition is accompanied by the music of great composers like Saint-Saëns, Mozart, and Bach.
