In-Person Museum Environments

Maintaining stable temperature and relative humidity, as well as good air quality and limited exposure to light and other forms of radiation, are some of the most important factors in preserving the physical materials of cultural heritage. In this one-day, in-person workshop, participants will be introduced to the international guidelines for Museum environments, as well as the impact of these environmental factors over time and for different material types. In a practical exercise, participants will gain hands-on experience using instruments for measuring temperature, relative humidity, visible light, UV radiation, and air quality. In the afternoon, more in-depth environmental analysis will be discussed using data collected by the Chazen Museum as a case study.
