Dear Colleagues,

Tell a friend!  Today is your last chance to register for tomorrow's AAM webinar:

Handling Non-traditional Objects: From the Impossible to the Reality
April 21
2-3:30 p.m. (EDT)
In collaboration with the Packing, Art Handling and Crating Information Network (PACIN), an AAM Professional Interest Committee and LearningTimes

In this webinar, practitioners in the field will discuss handling non-traditional objects during exhibition and storage. Each case will examine risk assessment, preplanning, implementing the move and lessons learned/next steps. Alice Newton of Harper's Ferry will discuss the challenges of moving 5.5 million objects (from Moran paintings to human remains) seven miles in three and a half months; Mark Wamaling from Artex will explore, among other things, what he learned from packing and handling two giraffes; and Michelle Barger from SFMOMA will address safe approaches-for the art work, the art handler, and the public-in handling, installing and displaying art work that contains toxic materials.

"See" you online soon!
