In anticipation of the joint AIC-CAC 2026 Meeting in Montreal, please join us for a lecture by Leib Celnik, Doctoral Candidate at the Department of History of Science and Technology at Johns Hopkins University, that looks at the history of art conservation in Canada and the United States. AIC Vice President Abed Haddad will moderate.

The Laser Discussion Group (LDG) is AIC’s newest discussion group and was established under the auspices of the Research and Technical Studies Group. The goal of the group is to advance the use of laser technologies in art and heritage conservation and facilitate communication and collaboration between communities that utilize lasers in conservation interventions or treatments. This initiative seeks to expand American engagement within the established international community and to serve as a resource for professionals interested in incorporating laser technologies into conservation practices.

The AIC Sustainability Committee in conjunction with the UK-based Institute of Conservation (ICON) is excited to announce our upcoming webinar with Marcus Knight of BeGreenAI (www.begreenai.com), who will be discussing sustainable practices of AI-use in relation to the conservation and cultural heritage community. This event will take place on March 5th, 2026 at 11am EST/4pm GMT. The discussion with Marcus Knight will be followed by a Q&A session.

In this webinar we will bring together a panel of three conservation professionals who are experts in more environmentally friendly conservation labs to deliver practical approaches that attendees can use to help to practice more green conservation approaches in their own labs.

Join former and current Holly Maxson Conservation Grant awardees as they discuss their projects, creating relationships, and shaping ideas to reach younger audiences with information about conservation.
