Keeping Historic Houses & Museums Clean 4 week online course begins March 3 on MuseumStudy.com
An
unkempt museum or historic house is not appealing to the visitor nor is
it healthy for the staff and collection. In this 4 week online
professional development course instructor Gretchen Anderson will lay a
foundation as to how to clean objects and facilities safely. We will
explore a variety of subjects, including health and safety for the staff
and the objects, cleaning methods for a large variety of collection
types common in art & cultural institutions and the importance of
documenting what you do.
One former participant said, "This class was
so helpful! This was such a great resource! For the first time since I
started working here, my staff really seems to understand why I ask them
to do what we do. It has really been the start of some great
conversations on site and we will 100% use the techniques learned."
Please join us
for this timely class to look at methods to protect both the collection
and your visitors.
