Conservation Center for Art & Historic Artifacts | Collections Climate Resiliency Cohort | The Conservation Center for Art & Historic Artifacts (CCAHA), in partnership with Christopher Cameron of Sustainable Heritage, are introducing as Collections Climate Resiliency Cohort for collecting institutions (any museum, library, archive, historic site, and/or organizations with historic and/or cultural collections available to the public), with generous funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities.
The vast majority of land in both New Jersey and Delaware lies within what geologists call the Atlantic Coastal Plain, which has a heightened vulnerability to storm inundation and sea-level rise. Collecting institutions need to undergo a paradigm shift in their thinking, a monumental task, to begin to approach planning in a way that both increases sustainability efforts to mitigate their own contributions to climate change while also preparing and adapting for projected outcomes in an ever riskier world. The curated cohort of small institutions will commit to this paradigm shift by examining their everyday operations with a lens toward sustainability and climate change. We will provide sites with environmental dataloggers and work with them to collect environmental data including temperature, relative humidity, and dew point for a one-year period. | Apply Here.
