Outreach and Education
Lectures and Community Outreach
Aurora Art Conservation regularly participates in community outreach, offering lectures and discussions to both public and private audiences. Topics include presentations of treatments related to the group (completed for an individual member, a local historical society, a hosting museum, etc.) or more general conservation subjects including philosophies, controversies, or landmark treatments. We are willing to work with your group to tailor a presentation to the interests and needs of your members.
