Taking Care of Family Treasures

Free workshop with Deidre McKillop from Sydney’s Powerhouse Museum

Families accumulate documents and memorabilia. These may include certificates, awards, maps, diaries, photos and photo albums, cuttings  & scrapbooks. Even the most recent of documents should be cared for in the same way as old documents.

You are invited to a FREE 2 hour workshop where Deidre will talk about how to care for your paper based memorabilia, how to reduce the risk of deterioration and provide tips on good storage and handling of objects.

Bring along your own paper based object to the workshop, share in some morning tea and discuss the needs and care of your collection at home.
