Kick off the new year with a clean slate—literally! In our first webinar of 2026, we’ll explore how thoughtful, routine housekeeping can make a big impact on the long-term preservation of your collections. Designed for museums, historical societies, and even private collectors, this session covers approachable, sustainable practices to reduce dust, pollutants, pests, and handling risks. We’ll discuss how to build realistic cleaning schedules, select the right tools and materials, and empower staff and volunteers to support preventative care. It’s the perfect moment for fresh beginnings and refreshed collections.
