A grant of $4970 would enable the Stephen Phillips Trust House to complete a re-housing project of the art collection. The final 250 (of a total of 663) pieces need to be removed from inadequate locations and conditions and placed in a setting that meets current preservation standards. The funds would be used to purchase two art storage bins and one shelving unit for our off-site storage facility as well as archival supplies. The purpose of the project is twofold: to ensure the preservation of the collection and to make it accessible for future programming, exhibits and research. |
