Museum Skills Workshop: Preserving Your Prized Possessions

Location: Royal Alberta Museum - Roundhouse Theatre
Age group: 15 and up
Cost: $36 and includes General Admission

Our personal stories and histories are often told through the scrapbooks, photos, and letters we cherish. To ensure these memories survive for future generations, we need to provide them with the highest level of care.

Join professional archivists and conservators from RAM and the Provincial Archives of Alberta (PAA) to learn the "best practices" for caring for your personal paper collections. This workshop offers a practical introduction to preserving photos, letters, cards, and scrapbooks.

Item description submitted at time of workshop registration. The items must be relatively small and portable: either one scrapbook or one small collection of photos, letters, and cards that are collectively no larger than shoebox sized. We may decline your items if we cannot accommodate them.

This workshop is open to anyone aged 15+, with no previous experience necessary.
