Presentation of the Piece of the Month | LECTURE

Presentation of the ‘Piece of the Month’ for September: ‘El pantògraf’, by Chon Montfort, pattern-maker. The piece will be on display in the foyer of the Museum of Footwear and Industry throughout September.

Would you like to find out how shoe patterns are made and learn about the story of Chon Montfort, a pattern-maker who managed to carve out a place for herself in a traditionally male-dominated world? She’ll explain this craft to us, as well as a machine that was essential for scaling patterns: the pantograph.

The event is free of charge and no prior registration is required
