Let's Talk About That: Dialogue and Change in Collections Care

Join us for the first session in this six-part series: Setting the Stage: Understanding Each Other's Different Functions and Goals



Collection care professionals are often tasked with making crucial decisions about which collection items to prioritize for conservation, access, or exhibition. But such decisions are rarely made in a vacuum, and often require navigating the many different voices and competing priorities within an organization. How can one be an effective and ethical steward of our cultural heritage while balancing these varied perspectives and goals? Let's talk about that! In the first session of our six-part series, Alex Pezzati (Senior Archivist, Penn Museum) and Heather Hendry (Senior Paper Conservator, CCAHA) will discuss conservation treatment for a series of watercolors of Japanese archaeological finds and sites sent by Japan to the World's Columbian Exposition in 1893. Alex and Heather will present their efforts to make these fragile items accessible for research, including the critical conversations relevant to each of their goals that were encountered in the process.

Fundraising and Promotion for Collections

This three-week virtual course will guide participants in how to develop and implement funding strategies that can make their collection stewardship dreams come true. Drawing from success stories at museums, historic sites, libraries, and archives, this course will combine live and asynchronous instruction to examine the advance planning that should support preservation and conservation initiatives, the range of potential funding sources to consider, writing approaches that can make a request compelling, and the art of promoting and leveraging for future success.

Fundraising and Promotion for Collections is an asynchronous, virtual course presented using Canvas LMS. Participants in this course will join a virtual classroom where they can download resources, watch pre-recorded lectures, and connect with colleagues on their own schedule. New modules will be released each Monday at 10am EST (December 6, 13, and 20th). The course also includes three live Zoom discussions with the instructors, which will take place at 2pm EST on Wednesdays, December 8th, 15th and January 5th.
