The Hat Museum takes part in the ´Museu Infinito`exhibition held at the Museu do Design e da Moda (MUDE) in Lisbon.

“Museu Infinito” talks about the Museu Industrial e Comercial do Porto (Industrial and Commercial Museum of Porto), created in 1883, thanks to the work of António Augusto Aguiar and the special commitment of the historian and art critic Joaquim de Vasconcelos (1849-1936).

Numerous national institutions and some private collectors have taken part in this exhibition. The Hat Museum contributed with the loan of a bowler hat and a variety of raw materials, tools and other objects related to the production of felts and hats.
