Hat Museum takes part in the 8th Conference of the Algarve Museum Network

On 14 November, the Hat Museum took part in the 8th Conference of the Algarve Museum Network.

To mark the 20th anniversary of the Faro Convention (2005), the paper ''From Unhas Negras (Black Nails) to Heritage: a Relationship with History(ies)'' was presented. It addressed the museological and heritage-related challenges involved in the way the Museum integrates the hat-making community into the museological process, preserving not only objects and memories, but also putting into practice the notion of heritage as a living and participatory process.
