International Garden Festival 2006The International Garden Festival is preparing its seventh edition and is issuing a call for entries to select some of the designers who will be invited to create temporary gardens for the 2006 Festival.
This call for entries is open to all landscape architects, architects, artists and designers from Canada and abroad.
The deadline for submission of entries is Monday, October 31, 2005.
The Jardins de Métis/Reford Gardens, located on the shores of the St. Lawrence and Mitis rivers in eastern Québec, attract approximately 100,000 visitors every summer.
Designed as a private garden by a collector and avid gardener, the Reford Gardens were declared a national historic site in 1996 by the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada.
The International Garden Festival, which takes place on a site adjacent to the historical gardens, is a unique forum for innovation and experimentation which consists in the presentation of temporary gardens created by Québec, Canadian and international designers.
Launched in 2000 the International Garden Festival has presented over 50 gardens by designers from 9 countries.
It is an exceptional showcase and launching pad for the participating designers from a host of disciplines.
