Fellowships at SPNEA

Post-graduate fellowships in objects and/or furniture conservation
The Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities (SPNEA)

The Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities (SPNEA)
is seeking applications for one and possibly two, one year,
post-graduate fellowships in objects and/or furniture conservation
beginning in the fall of 2004.  Projects for the year will focus on
the treatment of objects from the Codman House, a Georgian House
built around 1740.  The collections include American and European
decorative and fine art collected by the Codmans, including the
noted interior designer Ogden Codman, Jr..  Treatments will also
include material from SPNEA's 35 other historic properties, spread
throughout New England. Participation in preventive conservation
projects is expected as is occasional travel to SPNEA sites.

Candidates must be graduates of a conservation training program or
have equivalent experience and be legally entitled to work in the
United States. The stipend for both fellowships is in the mid $20Ks
with an additional $2,000 for travel.  The SPNEA lab is located in
Haverhill, MA approximately 45 minutes north of Boston.  For more
