Surveys

Our customized collections survey is tailored to the needs of your institution, whether you require a general overview of the museum or a detailed examination of a particular aspect of your collection. Collections surveys are equally important for new and tiny museums as they are for larger institutions seeking grants and project support on a national level.

After we visit your site and examine your collection, we provide you with a detailed survey report. This report can include:

• A summary of your institution's collection and site conditions

• Digital photographs of your textiles and facilities
• Detailed conservation reports for textiles that need treatment
• Recommendations for upgrading storage areas
• Guidance on exhibiting and interpreting your collection

Recent collections-care clients include: Maine State Museum, Wheaton College, Old Sturbridge Village, Massachusetts Historical Society, United States Military Academy Museum, Saugus Iron Works, and Peabody Historical Society.
