How do we extend the lifespan of museum objects?); Collection Intersections and Artistic Spirit (What do we collect - and why?

Display case contents will change as collections are processed and new materials brought forward for worK); The Science of Decay (Investigate how materials decay, despite museum efforts, using what you learn to explore Museum traveling exhibits. |
