Hello BCMA community,

We have discovered some artifacts that have become mouldy in storage. We have gathered information and resources to help us deal with this in house, but I am curious to know if there are any service providers out there who have experience in conservation of artifacts that have become mouldy.

Best regards,

Ava Hansen
