Normally, we would have opened the brand new collection presentation 'Impressive!' on Friday 13.11.20, with a selection from our well-stocked print cabinet. A special exhibition, because not only will you get to see unique prints, you will also find out how much work volunteers do behind the scenes to preserve the collection. They even helped choose the works that will be on display in the future.

The exhibition is a unique opportunity to show the work and the people behind the scenes

USE YOUR WITS

Lucienne Crols (67) and Bie Devroey (59) both work as volunteers for M. They help preserve, describe and digitise the print room. Quite an intensive job, as it turns out.

 

Bie: “I come to M two mornings a week.”

 

Lucienne: “And I’m here every Tuesday from nine-thirty to four. I take the bus from Nieuwrode. It takes an hour to get here and back, that’s why I come all day.”
