A Long-Range Preservation Plan (LRPP) is a core document that both identifies priorities for conservation and preservation projects and outlines a course of action for their completion. The LRPP is a powerful tool for communicating goals and progress with an institution’s board or parent organization, for galvanizing support from administration and staff, and for obtaining grant funding for specific projects. Geared toward small and mid-sized cultural institutions, in this course participants will learn the essential components of a LRPP, become familiar with key preventive conservation concepts, and gain skills in both risk assessment and the prioritization of preservation needs. Through in-class assignments and a recommended 4-6 hours/week of independent work time between sessions, participants will conclude this course with a draft LRPP for their organization.
Course Instructor: Nicole Grabow, Director of Preventive Conservation, Midwest Art Conservation Center (MACC)
