The Ceramics & Glass Group in conjunction with the Stained Glass Group and Scotland Group are hosting a 3-day glass conservation workshop led by Tiago Oliveira, ACR with teaching support from Ros Hodges, ACR.
Workshop Summary
This 3-day Workshop is aimed at conservators with previous knowledge but little experience of glass conservation, being objects or stained glass. The course will cover theory about glass degradation, conservation issues, conservation materials and techniques, and hands-on sessions on handling, bonding, mould making and filling flat glass and vessel glass surrogates. At the end of the workshop, participants will have a clear idea of common glass conservation issues, and options and strategies for their conservation.
