Conservation Advisory Board

We are seeking mentoring from experts in painting conservation, art history, paint chemistry, and academia and who share interests in eastern Maine. We are cordially inviting them to join our Advisory Board to play an active role of their choice. We need their help to mentor the evolution of the painting conservation studio. It is not anticipated that members will play a direct role in conserving paintings, but will rather play a discreet relationship-bulding role. More specifically, we need help from our advisors, as follows.

to advise about focusing the overall mission of the conservation studio
to introduce us to conservators interested in a residency
to help us reach out to philanthropists and foundations with interests in painting conservation
to ease us into developing partnered programs with universities teaching conservation
to introduce us to guest lecturers
to provide guidance about the stepped acquisition of equipment
