About Tekeyan Armenian Cultural Association of Montreal
The Tekeyan Armenian Cultural Association of Montreal offers comprehensive cultural programming and community services to the Armenian diaspora throughout the Greater Montreal area. Operating from its headquarters in Ville Saint-Laurent, QC, the organization has been a cornerstone of Armenian cultural life since its establishment in 1965. The association provides diverse cultural activities including theater productions, fine arts exhibitions, literature programs, and traditional Armenian dance instruction. The center also operates a vibrant youth summer camp program designed to engage younger generations with their heritage and cultural traditions.
Beyond cultural programming, the Tekeyan Center in Ville Saint-Laurent serves as a vital community resource, housing the Vazken Keshisian Library—an extensive collection of Armenian books covering history, literature, and arts. The organization publishes Abaka, Canada's first Armenian newspaper, which has been in continuous publication since 1975 and provides coverage of news from Armenia, Artsakh, and diaspora communities including the Montreal and broader Canadian Armenian populations. The center regularly hosts social events and traditional meals, creating opportunities for community members of all ages to gather, celebrate holidays, and maintain cultural traditions. Whether seeking artistic enrichment, educational resources, or community connection, the Tekeyan Armenian Cultural Association serves as the cultural hub for Armenian life in the Montreal region.
