Cartmel Conservation can work with you to provide specialist conservation skills for objects in your collections.  Together, we will establish a conservation plan looking at condition, storage and display requirements.  I can conserve objects to stabilise them in an ‘as used condition’ to prevent further deterioration or adopt a more extensive programme of conservation work to preserve an object’s longer-term future and understanding.

A good exhibition displays an object, artefact or collection in a way that will attract, inspire and engage visitors, allowing people to come together to share memories and emotions.  With experience in managing, curating and producing many exhibitions including community-led projects, Cartmel Conservation can help you grow your initial idea to provide a quality exhibition for visitors to enjoy.
