April 12, 2018, 2:00-3:30 EDT The Care of Industrial Artifacts with Clara Deck, Senior Conservator at The Henry Ford.

If you care for large industrial artifacts or agricultural machines, this webinar is for you. This webinar will address care issues common to Industrial Collections. We will cover how to safely move large objects, how to best store them, and address topics related to machinery on exhibition both indoors and outdoors. We’ll touch on the ethical issue related to restoration, if it is an option, or when ongoing functional use is a driving concern. Topics will include expected materials to look for and what to do when you find hazardous materials when examining and documenting objects. Sign up here:

I have done a number of webinars through this group and they are usually pretty good, especially for a freebee.

Too bad that it has to be the same time as the HRA conference.
