Exhibition of the Handshouse Studio: Notre-Dame Project Truss reconstruction and La Forêt model.

Come see the full-scale reconstruction of Notre-Dame de Paris’ choir truss #6, built by Handshouse participants using medieval tools and processes!

Learn about “La Forêt”—the roof structure above the choir section of Notre-Dame de Paris which suffered devastating burns and destruction in the 2019 fire—through exploration of a 1:10 scale model!

This exhibition at the Fenimore Art Museum in Cooperstown, NY will be a spectacular opportunity to explore the complex architecture of Notre-Dame de Paris, learn about its burning and reconstruction, and hear the story of how Handshouse lent many hands to the cathedral as an act of global solidarity.
