Conservation Technology Forum in Tasmania

Conservation Technology Forum in Tasmania
25th November 2004
As a result of enquiries from a number of conservation practitioners the APT Australasian Chapter will be re-formatted as a Conservation Technology Forum to provide a vehicle for the dissemination of information about conservation technology. Participation in the Forum will be open to anyone with a professional interest. Dr Donald Ellsmore will coordinate a Forum event to coincide with the ICOMOS Conference at Port Arthur on 25th November. Forum participants will have an opportunity to inspect recent works to recover John Lee Archer’s design of the Long Room in the former Customs House in Hobart [Parliament Building] and examine building lime and conservation treatments of headstones on the Isle of the Dead at Port Arthur.

The Conservation Technology Forum is an unsponsored, open event. Costs would be met by individual participants. Anyone interested in the Forum should contact Donald Ellsmore by e-mail at donald.ellsmore@deakin.edu.au for further details.
