ADDISON — The Spring Meeting of the Addison Town Historical Society will be on Wednesday, March 20, at 7 p.m., at the Addison Fire Station, located at 44 Rt. 17 just west of Addison Four Corners.
Join Fort Ticonderoga Director of Collections Miranda Peters for her talk “For Future Generations: The Preservation and Care of Fort Ticonderoga’s Collections.”
Peters will discuss the wide range of collections programs currently underway at Fort Ticonderoga. Over the past four years, Fort Ticonderoga has built a nationally renowned Collections Department — a team dedicated to the documentation, preservation, and care of over 200,000 artifacts. While caring for a collection of this size takes a group effort, Peters will also provide tips on how anyone on any budget can take steps toward preserving their own important keepsakes and family heirlooms using the same methods and principles applied at museums.
Guests are invited to bring items and questions. Handouts will be provided for conservation resources. Light refreshments will be served, and as it is the new year, 2019 dues of $5 are due.
