Goals
On one hand, the Matrimony Days shed light on the Brussels historic women’s–architectural, sculpture, urbanist, social–heritage. On the other, the Matrimony Days are also a way to discover today’s–artistic, political and feminist–heritage.
Beyond discovering Brussels’s women’s heritage which is sometimes–or often–eclipsed, the fundamental issue of women’s access to property and related professions is raised horizontally during workshops led by experts and throughout the tours led by professionals on the ground. Therefore, the entirety of the program is made to give an account of the participation of women* and gender minorities in multiple professions related to Matrimony.

To improve the activities we offer, we have also set up a yearly programing as of 2021: the Matrimony Season. It offers the residents of Brussels over thirty activities, including: guided tours, workshops, exhibitions, movie projections, and ever more contents to discover our Matrimony heritage. The concept is to continuously participate in raising awareness and training the general public to the Matrimony.
