Getting  the Money: Disaster Funding to Get Institutions Back on Their Feet 
  
Tuesday,  May 8, 2012 
9:00  a.m. – 12:00 noon, $79 (free for AIC-CERT members) 
Organized  by the AIC Emergency Committee. Funded in part by a grant from 
the Institute  of Museum and Library Services. 
Cultural  institutions need funding to begin recovering their cultural 
assets in the  immediate aftermath of a disaster. Learn from national experts 
how you can  help cultural institutions – including your own – find critical 
financial aid  in a program filled with practical advice. 
Hitoshi  Kimura, AIC-CERT member, will set the  stage with photos of what 
he encountered when deployed to the North Lee County  Historical Society 
(NLCHS) in Fort Madison, Iowa, following the 2008  Mississippi River flooding. 
L.D.  "Andy" Andrews, President of the North Lee County Historical Society, 
will  share the challenges they faced trying to secure recovery funding for 
NLCHS.   
Deborah  Peak, Senior Vice President at Huntington T. Block Insurance 
Company, will  discuss fine arts insurance issues as they relate to post-disaster 
funding,  including how to document and file a claim and how to establish 
value for  cultural materials.  
Georgia  Taylor, founder and fine art claims adjuster of Shooting Star 
Claims, will  share her perspective on the administration of fine art losses for 
museums,  galleries, artists, and art collectors.  
Kristy  B. Barbier, FEMA’s Public Assistance Outreach Officer for Region 
VI, will  explain the federal funding that can aid cultural institutions in 
disaster  response and recovery and, most important, will provide advice on 
how cultural  institutions can successfully navigate the Public Assistance 
process.   
These  four know the scoop. Do you? Develop your effectiveness in times of 
need by  attending this unique program. Register today at
