Midwest Art Conservation Center presents:

    Writing Grants for Basic Conservation Projects
    North Star Museum of Boy Scouting and Girl Scouting in
    North St. Paul, MN
    March 27-28, 2008
    <URL:http://www.nssm.org>

Fee: $196 for members of Midwest Art Conservation Center or $245
(reduced fees are available to qualifying institutions and to
currently enrolled students)

The instructors will present a comprehensive workshop on
grant-writing for basic conservation-related projects including
Overall General Preservation/Conservation Surveys, writing Long-term
Preservation Policies, preservation training, and obtaining supplies
and materials for basic rehousing of collections projects. Related
topics will include discussing potential funding sources at the
Federal, state and local levels, doing an internal review to
facilitate presenting the organization in the best possible light,
putting all of the pieces together before developing a grant, how to
budget, and how to develop a realistic proposal. The goal of the
workshop is for participants to leave the session with an actual
draft proposal. Preservation Services staff will then follow-up with
participants who are developing full grant applications. Neil
Cockerline, Director of Preservation Services and Elisa Redman,
Assistant Director of Preservation Services, MACC, will teach this
two-day workshop.
