Adirondack History Center Museum

The Adirondack History Center Museum will conduct conservation treatment of items from the Arto Monaco Collection, a high-priority collection consisting of toys and prototype models made by the artist, Arto Monaco, as well as signs, figures, and souvenirs from the Land of Makebelieve, an Adirondack theme park that was in operation from 1954-1979. Activities include conservation treatment of five high-priority items and remedial treatment and cleaning of the other objects in the collection. When the project is completed, the collection will be fully processed and conserved, benefitting both present and future museum audiences.
