"Lockdown" Tutorials Provide Helpful Tips To Care For Art at Home

8/3/2020

 
Earlier in 2020 the Balboa Art Conservation Center's conservation team made a series of videos from their respective residences during statewide stay-at-home orders. The goal was to provide helpful, easy tips that anyone could implement to protect and clean the artwork they have at their home. The videos are handy, often humorous, and wonderfully homemade. Originally created for Instagram, they are now archived on YouTube as well.
