Live Conservation: Restoring a 17th Century Spanish Tabernacle is a small, intensive exhibition that focuses on the conservation of a gilded, painted, and carved tabernacle made in Northern Spain during the mid-1600s.
Luis Seixas—an alumnus of the conservation program at the prestigious Universidade Nova, Lisbon—will meticulously undertake the task of cleaning, consolidating, and restoring this precious artifact live within the Miriam Acheson Gallery.
Live conservation occurs most weekdays (Tuesday through Friday) between 10 am – 2 pm, with a break around noon, with a special Saturday session (10 am – 12 pm) each month.
Included with museum admission.
