Museums sometimes talk about how they are preserving their collections "for future generations" but how many museums involve kids in their conservation and preservation activities? Heritage Preservation is seeking stories about how to engage grade school and high school students in collections care. Does any of your educational or public programming include conservation? Do you use students as collections care volunteers or interns? Did any of them go on to become a professional in the field? 

Please send your stories to me at [log in to unmask] Thanks!
