Exhibit A: Investigating Crime & Footwear

We're so excited to announce the opening of our new exhibition "Exhibit A: Investigating Crime & Footwear" on April 18, 2024. This exhibition examines both the development of footwear forensics as a means of solving crime and the social constructions of criminality from the nineteenth century to today. It also considers how clothing and footwear play roles in cultural ideas of criminality informed by assumptions and bias. This exhibition will take visitors on a journey to sleuth out the central but complex role of footwear in crime, policing, the judiciary system and our cultural ideas of criminality. Curated by Dr. Alison Matthews David and Elizabeth Semmelhack Learn more about the exhibition on our website: https://batashoemuseum.ca/exhibit-a/ Don't forget to follow us on social media so you never miss any updates!
