Unique internship supports diversity in art conservation
The National Gallery of Canada (NGC)카지노 게임 컬렉션s Diversity Internship in conservation and restoration is aimed at engaging Indigenous and Black students, and students from other cultural communities from across Canada.
Initiated by Stephen Gritt, Director of Conservation and Technical Research at the NGC, and in partnership with Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s 카지노게임사이트 Art Conservation Program, the internship allows four students to prepare for their studies after their acceptance into the Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s Art Conservation Program.
Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s offers the only Master카지노 게임 컬렉션s program in Art Conservation in Canada. Each intern will be provided with a $25,000 bursary and a placement in Ottawa in the summer prior to their first semester at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s 카지노게임사이트. The internships are funded by an anonymous philanthropist.
Diversity in art conservation is a focus of Patricia Smithen, director of the Art Conservation Program at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s 카지노게임사이트, so when she was presented with an opportunity that would support future Black, Indigenous and people of color conservators at the entry level, she jumped at the opportunity.

From three to five months, they will be paired with various experts from the National Gallery카지노 게임 컬렉션s Restoration and Conservation Laboratory and will follow them in their daily work as observers.
They will also be introduced to Conservation Science and broader heritage preservation issues at the Canadian Conservation Institute, also in Ottawa. The students will also visit Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s for a week of activity 카지노 게임 컬렉션 most likely to have them work on a mini-project.
