Subject: Clothworkers' Foundation Conservation Research Fellowship
Clothworkers' Foundation Conservation Research Fellowship 2014 Conservation Research Fellowship 2014 Now in its sixth year, this competitive programme awards up to UKP80,000 for a UK public institution to enable a senior conservator (employed by that institution) to pursue a research project sabbatical for two years. During the sabbatical, the senior conservator's post will be covered by an externally recruited junior conservator. The grant will cover the salary and on-costs of the junior conservator, and the project costs of the work undertaken by the senior conservator. Previous fellowships have been awarded to: Glasgow Museums for research into/conservation of, 15th century stained glass windows; the British Museum for research into/conservation of, naturally-mummified human remains, Pitt Rivers Museum for research into/conservation of the Cook Voyage Collection; Courtauld Institute of Art for the conservation and study of a major painting; and Tate for research into/conservation of British paintings from 1530-1790. We regret that public institutions outside the UK are not eligible to apply for the conservation fellowship.
