Call for Papers
"Know your place - the role of conservators in projects"

Conservation Matters in Wales conference
St Fagans: National History Museum
Cardiff, Wales
14 June 2012

A one day conference organised by Amguedda Cymru: National Museum
Wales, The Federation of Museums and Art Galleries of Wales and
Cardiff University.

With museums, libraries and archives working increasingly in a
project orientated culture we are looking for people willing to
share examples of conservation within projects, large and small, and
speak about their experiences. What projects have you been involved
in? What was your role and how was it defined? How were
relationships with colleagues managed? What input did you have? How
were conservation decisions made? Do you have any lessons learnt or
advice for successful project working?

Conservation Matters in Wales conferences are held twice a year in
Wales, UK and bring together examples of best practice, case studies
and research in conservation and collections care, and provide
networking opportunities for conservators and museum, library and
archive professionals.

St Fagans: National History Museum is one of Europe's foremost
open-air museums representing the life and culture of Wales and
situated in 100 acres of parkland.
