11/7/2006 Hampson Archeological Museum State Park
Dean Conservation Associates Inc., Portland, Oregon, visited our museum to conduct an in-depth Conservation Assessment Plan through the Institute of Museum and Library Science’s (IMLS) grant from Washington, D.C. The (CAP) grant provided the museum the means for a professional archeological conservator to evaluate and assess the environment in which the artifact collection resides. Keen insight was given to resolve problems surrounding the collection with short, medium, and long range solutions to be used in part for the park’s future planning and development guidelines.
