The Marius-Barbeau Documentation Center is happy to be partners with The Canadian Museum of Civilisation in its project « Marius Barbeau, a Canadian hero and his period 1883-1969 ».

On that site, Heritage Canada displays a sampling from a wealth of documents relating the history of the two dance companies.
