Housatonic Community College (Housatonic Museum of Art)

The Housatonic Community college's Housatonic Museum of Art will implement a collections stewardship project to increase storage space for current and future acquisitions and ensure proper care and preservation of its collections. Due to limited storage space, the museum will install new modular units in a reconfigured storage area for framed works on paper. They also will relocate artworks while the new units are installed. After inspecting and evaluating each piece, staff will develop a condition report and enter it into a database that will reflect donation provenance, appraisal valuations, installation and exhibition histories, loans, and current locations.
