Curator guided visit of new exhibition
Join a guided visit by curator Dr. Zanna Van Loon of the new exhibition Women’s Business / Businesswomen at the Museum Plantin-Moretus, which sheds light on 300 years of women’s history within the renowned publishing house and family home.
The exhibition reveals the lives and contributions of the many versatile women who, over nine generations, lived and worked in the printer’s home on the Vrijdagmarkt. These enterprising businesswomen, devoted homemakers, and skilled craftswomen were indispensable to the success of the Plantin-Moretus legacy — yet remained largely invisible to the public until now.
