The C2C Care Community is fortunate to be monitored by a group of volunteer conservation professionals who answer questions directly or seek the assistance of conservators and collections care professionals who provide expert assistance. Our current monitor is @Jess Ortegon!
A little about Jess:
- Pronouns: They/Them

I received my MS in Art Conservation in 2022 and am a current member of the American Institute for Conservation (AIC) and the Guild of Bookworkers.
- How long you've been a C2C Care Monitor: I'm still pretty new to monitoring since I've only done it once before.
- Why you like being a C2C Care Monitor: I love being able to help out with all sorts of questions and getting to connect with folks in the C2C network!
Our thanks to @Jess Ortegon and to all our C2C Care Monitors. Interested in volunteering? Please email c2cc@culturalheritage.org.
