The Amigos Imaging & Preservation Service in collaboration with OMA and the Oklahoma Registrars Association Standing Professional Committee of OMA is presenting the workshop on Monday, June 22 from 9am-4pm at the Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art. The speaker will be Alexis Miller of the Balboa Art Conservation Center (BACC), San Diego, California. This workshop will cover the specific factors to consider while caring for your paintings, whether you are establishing new procedures or making improvements to existing policies. Topics include environmental issues, such as temperature, relative humidity, and pollutants, as well as storage and display options, “best practices” for handling and transporting, and housekeeping procedures. Participants also will learn practical remedial care methods and be provided with guidelines to consider while working with a conservator. The cost of the workshop is $155. One scholarship is available from OMA and one from OKRA.  Register here
