Exploring the Conservation of The Hopewell Museum's Garment and Textile Collection.

  • Mercer County Library: Hopewell Branch 245 Pennington - Titusville Road Pennington, NJ, 08534 United States (map)

Established in 1922, The Hopewell Museum preserves and protects many objects that tell the story of the Hopewell Valley and its residents. To continue the museum's mission, The Hopewell Museum retained preventive conservator Wendy Jessup to plan and implement the recovery of the museum’s vast garment and textile collection.  On April 29th, Jessup will present an illustrated lecture about the project and the importance of community involvement in the stewardship of shared resources.
