Attendance is open to the public, University Community and Students.

Understanding the conservation of material culture is framed by the
values obtained from diverse and broad disciplines. Together the
values identify the line of best fit to inform our understanding of
a material that is uniquely constructed and aged in an array of
climatic conditions.

This one-day conservation symposium organised by the Centre for
Cultural Materials Conservation (CCMC) includes five panels on
current materials based research in Australia across the themes of
conservation methodologies, data management, climate and materials,
imaging and non-destructive analysis and materials analysis.
Research draws on a number of research grants awarded by the
Australian Research Council including The Twentieth Century in
Paint, and strong institutional engagement across Australia,
Southeast Asia, the UK and the USA.
