About the Workshop:
Preventive conservation
The first part of the workshop aims to reinforce the importance of implementing a preventive conservation plan as a way of protecting our collections, exploring the main causes of degradation that can affect different types of objects.
Handling of cultural and artistic objects
In the second part of the workshop, we will address issues related to the transportation and handling of works of art, as well as practical issues such as packaging and storage spaces, always with the aim of preventing damage from occurring.
