Please join the Drexel University Special Libraries Association (DUSLA) for an open house at the Conservation Center for Art and Historic Artifacts on November 12th from 4-6 pm.

From their website: "The Conservation Center specializes in the treatment of art and historic artifacts on paper. Established in 1977, CCAHA is one of the largest non-profit regional conservation labs in the country." At the Open House there will be a conservator or technician at every bench prepared to talk about their projects. It's also the time when the "best of the best" materials are out and you can look through everything at your own pace. Food and wine will also be available.

This event is open to the public and everyone is welcome regardless of their affiliation with DUSLA or Drexel. A group of DUSLA students plan to attend this event together and will be meeting in front of the CCAHA around 4. DUSLA welcomes anyone interested to attend the event as part of the group, but feel free to go on your own if you prefer. Either way, the CCAHA does ask that you RSVP, so if you plan to attend please email the DUSLA program coordinator Holly Zerbe, hzerbe@gmail.com, with your name as well as the names of any guests you plan on bringing by November 7th.
