-- please excuse cross posting - Dear all, for those, who plan to attend the Cultural Heritage Summit (http://european-cultural-heritage-summit.eu/?card) 18-24 June 2018 in Berlin, I'd like to draw your attention to a workshop by the Leibniz Research Museums, who will present current projects in the care of collection objects (https://sharingheritage.de/veranstaltungen/preventive-conservation/). Running from June 18-19, this workshop will present current conservation projects from a variety of fields including natural history (https://sharingheritage.de/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/180424-Workshop-Preventive-Conservation_Flyer-Web-final_MfN.pdf). The workshop will be held in English and participation is free. If you'd like to register, please contact [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>. This workshop includes an evening event, a panel discussion looking at conservation issues from different angles: "Tut-ankh-Amon, Space Suit & Archaeopteryx - How to Preserve Our Cultural Heritage?" (http://european-cultural-heritage-summit.eu/veranstaltungen/podiumsdiskussion-tut-ankh-amon-space-suit-archaeopteryx-wie-bewahren-wir-unser-kulturerbe?card=9307). This event will be held at the Museum für Naturkunde, Berlin, and can be booked separately (again, free of charge: http://bit.ly/2p4qfZG).
