Matrimony Days

Matrimony Days 2022

02.09.2022

22 sept – 25 sept.

 

“The Matrimony Days shed light on the historical Brussels matrimony – architectural, sculptural, urbanistic, social. On the other hand, the Matrimony Days are also an opportunity to discover the current heritage – artistic, political and feminist.

Beyond the discovery of Brussels’ matrimony, which is sometimes, and often even overshadowed, the fundamental question of access to property ownership for women and related professions is transversally raised during workshops led by female experts and throughout the visits conducted by professionals in the field.

The programme as a whole thus makes it possible to report on the participation of women in the many professions related to heritage.”

 

Matrimony : Tangible or intangible good of artistic or historical importance inherited from women”
