Dear All,

The provisional programme of the Museums and Restitution conference  
(University of Manchester 8-9 July 2010) is now available  
http://www.arts.manchester.ac.uk/museology/museumsandrestitution/programme/

Museums and Restitution is a two-day international conference  
organised by the Centre for Museology and The Manchester Museum at the  
University of Manchester. The conference examines the issue of  
restitution in relation to the changing role and authority of the  
museum, focussing on new ways in which these institutions are  
addressing the subject.

The conference will bring together museum professionals and academics  
from a wide range of fields (including museology, archaeology,  
anthropology, art history and cultural policy) to share ideas on  
contemporary approaches to restitution from the viewpoint of museums.

*Places are limited; book early to avoid disappointment!*

Kostas.
