COMING UP AT CAFE 349 – DUMOINE RIVER JOURNEY

In the summer of 2022, close to twenty artists journeyed to the Dumoine River watershed for a week to capture its rich, unspoiled beauty in paint, photography, sculpture and mixed media. Not only is the Dumoine one of the last remaining undammed rivers anywhere, its watershed contains some of the last remaining stands of old-growth forest in southern Quebec and it is home to iconic and at-risk wildlife, such as the wolf, bear, moose and lynx. The sale of the artwork at Cafe 349 will help the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society (CPAWS) continue to advocate for the protection of the Dumoine and its sister rivers, the Noire and Coulonge.
