SUMMARY:Workshop on Textile Conservation
DESCRIPTION:IIC is delighted to present its next training programme in collaboration with the Palace Museum from 14 to 22 November 2017 in Beijing.

This will be followed by lectures\, practical session\, case studies and group discussions focused on enabling participants to develop an understanding of the key principles and themes in the practice of textile conservation which are required to formulate and execute appropriate conservation treatments for textile objects at their institutions. \nThe workshop will draw on the comprehensive textile collections of Palace Museum\, an institution with a longstanding reputation for the care of\, and research into imperial textiles in China.
