8th Annual Materials Selection & Specification Working Group Meeting

Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), NYC, November 21-22, 2024  

The November meeting will follow a similar structure of previous meetings to include collaboration, updates on subcommittee work, and breakout sessions for developing content to help choose appropriate materials for use with cultural heritage collections.

The program is in development, but is planned to cover 2 full days of content. The meeting will focus on specific task-based subcommittee work related to Materials Testing, Analytical Instrumentation, Exhibition Guidelines, Materials Fact Sheets on CAMEO, outreach resources, and more.  

Participants are expected to participate in resource development. Our overall goal is to build freely available online content. You can read about the goals for each MWG subgroup on the Materials Working Group Wiki page. MWG members were asked to extend the invitation to any and all exhibit designers, fabricators, and other colleagues at their institution or with whom they regularly work.
