The Foundation of the American Institute for Conservation is pleased to announce a webinar on fundraising for conservation.  The program is offered in collaboration with the American Alliance of Museums and funded by a grant from the Inge Foundation.

Registration:  Register on the AAM website:
http://aam-us.org/resources/online-learning/raising-money-for-collections-conservation
$50 general registration; discounts available for AIC and AAM members.


In this 90-minute webinar, presenters will use case studies to discuss various models and approaches to help leaders of collecting institutions of all sizes more successfully fund collections conservation by highlighting conservation needs to the board, donors, and visitors.

The presentation will highlight hard facts and real examples proving the benefits of the conservation-in-action approach, in terms of offers of funding, increased visitor numbers, regular repeat visits and greater visitor enjoyment. Presenters will examine what makes for a successful "adopt-an-artifact" program, consider variations on these programs that have been tried, and explore how these programs can be combined with social media campaigns.

Case studies include: Adopt-a-Carousel (Shelburne Museum, VT), the National Trust Open Conservation projects (UK) and others.

Please note: grant writing and large gift solicitations will not be covered in this webinar.

Who Should Attend
Conservators, collections managers, registrars, curators, development and membership staff, directors, CEOs, PR and marketing staff from collecting institutions of all sizes.

How Will I Benefit?

    Identify approaches for successfully funding collection conservation efforts
