The Northwest Conservators Group are holding their annual conference in December on the theme of ‘Transferable Skills in Conservation’. The conference is open to all with an interest in conservation including curators, conservators, historians, students, volunteers, interns, and related disciplines such as those runnign industrial hertiage sites.

A series of short talks will explore questions such as: what does this mean to you? Have you gained confidence in practical tasks from working alongside a conservator? Developed project management skills? Learnt something about yourself that has led you to a different career entirely? What are your experiences of the constraints, benefits and impact of skills and work ethic in the conservation profession? What tips and tricks can you share to help others? There will also be an oportunity to tour Bolton Museum.

This one day conference is being held at Bolton Museum and Art Gallery on the 13th December. The cost for the day ranges from £5 to £10. To book a place follow this link:
