Workshop on microchemical analysis

Workshop
"Microchemical Analysis for Conservators"
September 19-23, 2011

The Campbell Center is offering a workshop entitled "Microchemical
Analysis for Conservators."  The date for this workshop is September
19-23, 2011. This workshop is being taught by Skip Palenik of
Microtrace. Skip also teaches at McCrone Research Institute of
Chicago.  The tuition is $1150 and includes all equipment and
materials for the workshop plus lodging and most meals.  A discount
is available to individuals registering for this workshop and the
Microscopy workshop offered the preceding week.

Course description: This course is intended for conservators who
require chemical information from objects in their care but do not
possess sophisticated instruments or a fully equipped laboratory.
The goal is to enable the student to acquire chemical information
from minute samples using simple tools, techniques and chemical
reactions that can be performed on minute samples.  It stresses
technique rather than simply presenting a list of tests to be
performed in "cookbook" fashion.
