Do you have family treasures you wish
to preserve for generations?
From grandma's
quilt to dad's high school yearbook, our family treasures come
in all shapes and sizes. The simplest object can hold the memories
of generations. A photograph can act like a window into your
family past. Every priceless family treasure deserves special
care and attention. By preserving these objects, we ensure that
future generations have the opportunity to discover their family
history.
Stuhr Museum's
Collection and Research Departments are once again offering
our Preserving Family Treasures Workshop series. These popular
workshops offer you an opportunity to learn from the experts
how to care, preserve and store your family priceless treasures.
Class sizes are limited, so register soon!
