Subject: Call for applications--Nigel Williams Prize for Conservation for Glass and Ceramics
Call for applications Nigel Williams Prize 2014 Have you recently (or within the last three years) completed a conservation/restoration project in ceramics, glass, or some related material that might be of interest to others in the profession? Did it present some interesting challenges, technically and/or ethically, perhaps requiring a bit of lateral thinking? If so, why not apply for the Nigel Williams Prize 2014? The Winner receives UKP1000, together with a 'virtual' presentation of a gilded ceramic copy of the Portland Vase (kindly donated by Wedgwood and kept on permanent display in the Museum). A Secondary Prize of UKP400 may, at the judges' discretion, be awarded to any application considered to be a close runner-up. A Student Prize of UKP250 will be awarded for the project judged to be the best of those completed while the applicant was still a full-time student.
