Upcoming Events

We are looking forward to seeing you at our next event!

"Handlin' It" with CCAHA
$40.00

Join us for this 3 hour workshop hosted by the conservation experts at CCAHA. This workshop is designed to teach vital skills related to handling and transporting historic objects. The skills and best practices taught at this event are relevant for folks from across the GLAM spectrum - curators, archivists, art handlers, exhibitions folks, registrars, museum educators, etc. If you handle or are around historic objects, there will be something for you to learn here! 


The partnership between our allied organizations has made it possible for us to provide this workshop at a much reduced cost to our guests. The fee to join the program is 40 dollars for general admission tickets and 30 dollars for members of DVAG or MC. (Use promo code "member"). Please note we have a capacity of 20 people, so don't delay in reserving your spot! 

Old Pine Conservancy is located in Society Hill at 4th and Pine Streets. It's about a 10-15 minute walk from the 2nd and 5th street MFL stops. It's also accessible via the 12, 40 and 57 bus routes.
