<p class="x_MsoNormal">Adam Osgood, Joel Voron and Richard Pollack, three experts and leaders of the MuseumPests community will be presenting a free webinar
<b>From</b> <b>Awareness to Action: Advocating for Integrated Pest Management in Cultural Spaces</b> on August 27, 2025 at 1:00-2:00pm ET</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is an important part of protecting collections in cultural institutions. This webinar will provide a brief overview of IPM and focus on how to build support for it within your institution. Attendees will
learn which tasks can be handled by staff and when it’s necessary to bring in a pest management professional (PMP). The session will also cover what to expect from a PMP contractor, how to write contracts that reflect your institution’s IPM goals, and how
to work with service providers to ensure they deliver effective and collection-safe pest management. This webinar is ideal for anyone looking to start or improve an IPM program with strong institutional backing and contractor support.</p>
