Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Our goal is to use the information from this workshop to achieve success in securing grant funds for restoring the Nemeth Art Center's collection of 15th and 16th century paintings, and ultimately to have the paintings restored. If we secure funds and have the paintings restored, preserving them, we will have reached our goals.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Ultimately our goal is to have all of our permanent collection paintings restored and we will be more likely to accomplish this by utilizing the information that was gained by the director at the November 6th, 2015 MACC training. A large part of what was learned at the MACC training involved acquiring the necessary steps that need to be taken before applying for grant funds to restore our permanent collection of old world paintings.
