SUMMARY:Live Conservation Saturday at the MFA
DESCRIPTION:Join us for live conservation at the MFA! \nThe conservation of art—preserving objects through professional\, specialized treatment—is one of the Museum of Fine Art’s most important goals. This small\, intensive exhibition\, which is the second iteration of the Live Conservation series\, focuses on the treatment of the museum’s extraordinary carved and painted Jain Shrine. This rare object\, which was used for daily worship by members of the Jain faith in a private home\, preserves most of its original surface. However\, over time dust\, soot\, and the touch of hands have dulled its rich colors.  \nLuis Seixas—an alumnus of the conservation program at the prestigious Universidade Nova\, Lisbon—will meticulously undertake the task of cleaning\, consolidating\, and restoring this precious artifact live within the Minck Gallery.  \nAmong the most important goals of modern conservation is assuring that any alteration—including repairs or repainting—returns the object as much as possible to its original appearance. This unique experiential project will allow visitors to see the conservation process and interact with the conservator—allowing them to ask questions about treatment\, technique\, and materials. \nLive Conservation: Restoring a Jain Shrine occurs most weekdays (Tuesday through Friday) between 10 am – 2 pm\, with a break around noon\, with a special Saturday session (10 am – 12 pm) each month. See our Calendar of Events for all upcoming programs and events. \n  \nLive Conservation: Restoring a Jain Shrine\nFREE for MFA Members; Included with the cost of admission for Not-Yet Members \nPURCHASE TICKETS \nNot yet a member?\nBecome a member today and enjoy all the benefits membership at the MFA offers!  \nMFA Members enjoy free admission for an entire year\, early access to special exhibitions\, discounts at the MFA Shop and Café Clementine\, special member-only exclusive events\, and more.
