The Gift of Repair Panel Presentation

Presented by Lindsay Cook, Professor of Architectural History at Penn State University, and Marie Brown, Executive Director of Handshouse Studio and Notre Dame Project Director.

Learn about the experiences of Americans who worked alongside French carpenters to reconstruct Notre Dame de Paris in France and how a gesture of global solidarity among makers became an embodied act of reconstruction across borders.

This exhibition has been brought to A2AC by Handshouse Studio in participation with Lower Town Bar and Cafe, Roof Jumpers Timber Frames, Sam Beauford Woodworking Institute, and the Timber Framers Guild. Crane is generously supplied by Alta Equipment Company and operated by Operating Engineers Local 324.
