Juniata Museum of Art presents workshops for children ages 5-12. Participants will have the opportunity to create collage and splatter painting inspired by the artwork of Minna Citron.
The Juniata Museum of Art recieved a 2011 Heritage Preservation Grant that will allow the museum to participate in the Conservation Assessment Program (CAP). JCMA is 1 of 101 recipients of the grant nationwide and 1 of 5 in the state of Pennsylvania. The grant covers the cost of a General Collection and Conservation Assessment conducted by a highly trained and experienced conservator. The assessment covers storage and exhibition conditions, the museum environment, fabrication and condition of housing collections and policies and procedures concerning the use of collections. The CAP will help guide the museum in its continued quest to implement best practices in the field, as well as improve its stewardship over the collection, preserving it for many future generations. The grant also covers the cost of an assessment of Carnegie Hall by a historic preservation specialist, as the condition of the building, and the collections housed within, are interrelated.
Heritage Preservation is a national non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the cultural heritage of the United States.
