Midwest Art Conservation Center presents:

Writing Grants for Basic Conservation Projects

March 27-28, 2008

Location: North Star Museum of Boy Scouting and Girl Scouting in North St.
Paul, MN www.nssm.org
Fee: $196 for members of Midwest Art Conservation Center or $245 (reduced
fees are available to qualifying institutions and to currently enrolled
students)

Description: The instructors will present a comprehensive workshop on
grant-writing for basic conservation-related projects including Overall
General Preservation/Conservation Surveys, writing Long-term Preservation
Policies, preservation training, and obtaining supplies and materials for
basic rehousing of collections projects. Related topics will include
discussing potential funding sources at the Federal, state and local levels,
doing an internal review to facilitate presenting the organization in the
best possible light, putting all of the pieces together before developing a
grant, how to budget, and how to develop a realistic proposal. The goal of
the workshop is for participants to leave the session with an actual draft
proposal. Preservation Services staff will then follow-up with participants
who are developing full grant applications. Neil Cockerline, Director of
Preservation Services and Elisa Redman, Assistant Director of Preservation
Services, MACC, will teach this two-day workshop.
