We're so excited to announce that #ARA2023 will be held in Belfast! There'll be more details to come in the new year, but until then I'll be looking forward to visiting the Titanic Museum and the Giant's Causeway... and seeing all of you!

We are thrilled to be having a hybrid in person and virtual committee meeting today in sunny Wakefield! @ARAConsTraining
Another European Heritage Open Day over. Loved having the tours @PRONI_DFC stop by the studio.
Got the big screen working for my before photos. A new toy to play with 😊

Tension between preservation & access now largely a thing of the past (conservators have ceased to be known as killjoys or lux police). Conservators involved in decision-making. now to balance sustainability, access & preservation

As always, @NAIKeeper 's talk was awesome! A super practical approach to the conservation and safe access of Michael Collin's Pocket Diaries.
Did I heard that the publication was a #1 bestseller? (Yes, yes I did!)
#ARA2022
So encouraged to see six of the eight @PRONI_DFC delegates at Emma Dadson @Harwell_UK talk.
Some great tips to take back to Belfast for our emergency preparedness training!
#ARA2022
Thank you to Sharon and Mark for two fascinating talks on resilience and repairing labels. Can wait to see what's next.
