Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the Organizing Committee, we would like to invite you to attend Metal 2010, the triennial conference of the International Council of Museums Committee for Conservation Metal Working Group.
The conference will take place in the beautiful and historic city of Charleston, South Carolina from October 11th through the 15th, 2010. This is the first time that this conference will be held in the United States and is hosted by Clemson Conservation Center, home of the H.L. Hunley project.
The conference presents an opportunity for professionals from across the world to convene and discuss current issues in metal conservation.
We have an outstanding program that includes both conservation practice and conservation science, with speakers from more than 20 different countries. Participants in this year’s conference represent universities, national research laboratories, conservators in private practice and many renowned cultural institutions.
A special thanks is extended to the Program Committee members who have provided their expertise to ensure that Metal 2010 will maintain the tradition of producing a peer-reviewed publication.
The conference offers many opportunities for us to learn from one another and we hope that you take full advantage of this outstanding week.
Please join us at Metal 2010 in October. We look forward to seeing old friends and meeting new ones.
