Heritage Montreal’s 2009 Renovation Courses proudly sponsored by National Bank
Montreal, March 4, 2009 - Now is the time to sign up for Heritage Montreal’s popular series of Home Renovation Courses, starting March 25 2009. We are pleased to announce the support of the Banque Nationale Groupe Financier as the Principal Sponsor of Heritage Montreal’s highly regarded Renovation Courses Program, now in its 28th season.
In the current economic times, renovation remains a constant area of growth and Heritage Montreal is here to provide the building blocks of knowledge to interested home owners.
Taught by architects, engineers and other housing professionals, our courses are an ideal way for home owners and prospective buyers to learn what they need to know about maintaining, renovating and restoring homes of any age or architectural style.
Home owners are ideally placed to preserve the harmony and beauty of the built environment that make up much of our city’s charming neighbourhoods. Heritage Montreal has been giving these highly appreciated courses since 1981. The courses look at routine problems and their causes and examine solutions that suit the different architectural features of various homes. Armed with the knowledge they need, homeowners go away feeling more confident about making the substantial financial commitments that their projects require.
For just $299, the series of seven thematic courses is offered in English at Dawson College every Wednesday evening from March 25 to May 6, and in French at UQÀM Sherbrooke street Pavillon every Tuesday evening from March 24 to May 5.
