We've teamed up with Heritage Open Days to highlight some of the most fascinating conservation events taking place this September.
From stepping inside specialist conservation studios and archive strongrooms to hearing directly from accredited conservators, these events offer a rare opportunity to discover the skills, expertise and dedication involved in protecting our heritage.
Don't miss Icon's free online event The Stories Behind Things, which explores the sentimental value of the objects we keep and offers practical advice on caring for treasured possessions. Other highlights include behind-the-scenes museum tours, archive visits, textile conservation studio open days, and talks from accredited conservators working in the heritage sector.
Whether you're curious about conservation, passionate about heritage, or simply looking for inspiration during Heritage Open Days, these events provide an opportunity to see conservation differently.
