About

Hear about the fascinating work of Gallery conservators Edward Sakowski and Lynn Campbell. Restoring and conserving works in the Gallery's collection involves working with materials as diverse as paint, paper and human excrement.

They will talk about the role of the modern conservator, what the job involves and offer tips for looking after your own works, followed by a short visit to the conservation studios.

Includes breakfast at Alchemy Restaurant and Bar.
