Sharing the following message from our Executive Director:
For the past 10 years, FAIC has brought you free professional development training and preservation advice through Connecting to Collections Care. We're committed to keeping C2C Care free as long as possible, but we need your help. Thanks to generous commitments from Marc Williams (AIC Fellow; Graduate, Winterthur/University of Delaware Program in Art Conservation) and an anonymous donor, we have an incredible opportunity to unlock a double match for each dollar contributed through the end of the summer, up to $6,500!

In the coming months, you can tune in for free webinars on:
And you always have access to the over 150 webinars in our archives. Please help us ensure this programming continues into 2026.
We know many of you have limited funding to support professional development. Until our federal grant funding was abruptly terminated this spring, we could provide all of our webinars for free with few appeals for participant contributions. But operating the website, monitoring the forum, and paying webinar speakers for their expertise costs around $65,000 each year. Rather than pass those costs along to everyone via a registration fee, we're asking you to contribute what you can today. As an added incentive, every dollar will be matched with two additional dollars through September 22nd.
As we've been transparent about the challenges we're facing, members of this community have let us know how valuable this program is to them by stepping up to show their support. Will you join them today and help your contribution go three times as far?
With gratitude,
Lissa Rosenthal-Yoffe
Executive Director
