Graduate education in the conservation of humanities collections. Support would be provided for partial stipends to ten students over two years as well as honoraria for special guest lecturers.

This proposal to the National Endowment for the Humanities seeks $200,000 to support the education and training of ten Master-level students over a two-year period. Grant funds will provide stipends for fellows in the disciplines of objects, paper, photographs, or textiles, and include sub-specialties such as modern and contemporary art, time-based media, and preventive conservation.
