IIC Congress 1994 and Trade Show

IIC Congress 1994 and Trade Show, Ottawa, Canada
12-16 September 1994.

IIC Congress 1994, the fifteenth international congress of The
International Institute for the Conservation of Historic and Artistic
Works (IIC) will take place at the Ottawa Congress Center, Ottawa,
Canada, 12-16 September 1994.  Past IIC Congresses have been attended by
500 to 1000 delegates from around the world (Bologna 1986: 500; Kyoto
1988: 600; Brussels 1990: 840; Madrid 1992: 750).  The title of IIC
Congress 1994 is "Preventive Conservation: Practice, Theory and
Research".  This broad-ranging topic is currently receiving much
attention in the museum and archive community.  We anticipate between
500 and 750 international delegates for IIC Congress 1994 including
conservators, conservation scientists, administrators, and other
professionals engaged in all aspects of the preservation of the world's
cultural heritage.

Technical sessions at the congress will run from Monday, September 12 to
Friday, September 16.  Concurrent with the technical sessions of the
congress, a Trade Show is scheduled from Tuesday, September 13 to
Friday, September 16 to provide an opportunity for manufacturers and
distributors of conservation equipment, products, services, and
publications to display and promote their goods and services.

The Trade Show will be held in the Exhibition Hall immediately adjacent
to the Conference Room where technical sessions will be held.  Beverages
for the mid-morning and mid-afternoon coffee breaks will be dispensed at
various locations within the Trade Show Exhibition Hall to draw
delegates into the Trade Show. Technical posters will be displayed in an
adjacent area of the Trade Show Exhibition Hall.
