Presentations on rock art conservation at WAAC meeting

The Western Association for Art Conservation (WAAC) welcomes you to
attend a special session on rock art conservation during WAAC's 1997
Annual Meeting. This session offers an expert overview of the most
important issues in the conservation of rock art and will give you a
deeper understanding the challenges facing those involved in its
preservation, restoration, and analysis.

The speakers include some of the most experienced and committed
specialists in the western U.S., and their presentations will
reflect not only their own work but their years of involvement with
others in this field. Scheduled presenters include:

    Todd Bostwick
    Gerald Dawaventewa
    Claire Dean
    Ron Dorn
    Marietta Wetherill Eaton (Marietta Davenport)
    John Griswold
    Nicholas Stanley-Price
