Bringing together the international mountmaking community
Welcome
WHAT IS MOUNTMAKING?
Mountmaking is the process of designing, fabricating, and installing supports – called “mounts,” “brackets,” or “armatures” – for safe display or storage of artworks, artifacts, or natural history specimens. A well-made mount should help protect the object from external hazards or inherent structural weaknesses while enhancing the viewer’s experience.
