Subject: Workshop on cemetery preservation
The National Preservation Institute is hosting: Cemetery Preservation: Making Good Choices presented by Chicora Foundation from Columbia, South Carolina. Washington, D.C. October 9, 2003 8:30am to 5pm Like any preservation project, work in cemeteries requires that you make choices. This workshop is designed for anyone intending to begin a cemetery preservation or "restoration" project and will help ensure that these choices are sound and don't harm what you are seeking to protect. Discussions focus on current issues in cemetery preservation, such as recording and documenting cemeteries and graveyards, undertaking preservation efforts, and exploring conservation techniques and issues. Chicora Foundation has 20 years experience in cemetery preservation and has worked in a number of Georgia cemeteries. This is a unique opportunity to get great advice on your cemetery preservation project.
