Conservation lab tour opportunity during ALA Annual

  • 1.  Conservation lab tour opportunity during ALA Annual

    Posted May 13, 2025 09:54 AM
    If you're attending ALA Annual and are interested in touring a working conservation lab, keep reading!
    The Conservation Center for Art and Historic Artifacts (CCAHA) has generously offered to provide a tour of their lab at 10am on Monday, 6/30. Please fill out the interest form if you'd like to attend. There is limited space (the tour is capped at 15 participants); filling out the form will put you on the interest list, and participation will be confirmed in early June. 
    CCAHA is a nonprofit, full-service facility with experts in a range of disciplines who have been providing conservation and preservation services since 1977. Their NEH and IMLS grants were revoked in April, presenting them with significant financial challenges. If you're interested in supporting their ongoing work, donations in any amount can be made here. 
    The Preservation Outreach Committee is coordinating this tour. Please feel free to contact me directly (mleveran@uark.edu) with any questions.
