From the Fall of 2025 to the early Spring of 2026, there’s an exhibition of photographs of the Dumoine River on the Atwater Library’s mezzanine (Floor 1 by elevator) next to our Adair Auditorium.

The exhibition is an initiative of CPAWS · SNAP Canada to spread awareness of the importance of the Dumoine River in western Quebec and the efforts underway to preserve its watershed.
