Textile Services is pleased to announce that the 2009 Ancient Peruvian Textiles
Workshop will take place from January 11-21 in Lima, Peru. The theme of the
2009 workshop is "cotton." We will document, conserve and mount
pre-Columbian cotton textiles from the collection of the Huaca Malena Museum (http://huacamalena.perucultural.org.pe/).
Prior to the start of classes we will make a three-day excursion to Northern
Peru to visit the Bruning Museum in Lambayeque, the Sicán National Museum in
Ferreñafe, and the archaeological site of Tucume. At Tucume we will have a
hands-on lesson in cotton spinning and weaving. This
course is geared toward museum professionals and others with museum
sensibilities and excellent hand skills who want to learn about textile
conservation and pre-Columbian cultures while visiting Peru. Past students have
included conservators from all disciplines, archaeologists, weavers,
historians, and textile aficionados ranging in age from college students to
retirees. To see photos from past years please visit http://www.flickr.com/photos/patina_green/sets/.
The
course cost is $1000 per person. This includes up to eleven nights of
double-occupancy accommodation, ground transportation, tuition, and guides.
Single rooms may be available upon request at a higher cost. This fee does not
including airfares, return transportation to the airport after the course,
lunches, or dinners. Please
email Camille Myers Breeze at museumtextiles@xxxxxxxxx
for an application form or for more information.
