Huntington Art Gallery closes

After 20 years in operation, the conservation lab at the Huntington
Art Gallery/ Blanton Museum of Art at the University of Texas at
Austin is being shut down by the University. This is the second
conservation lab that the University has closed.

The conservator (that would be me) plans to work on a project for
the remaining lab on campus, at the Harry Ransom Humanities Resource
Center. The conservation graduate program at the Library and
Information School is also alive and well.
