Wednesday, July 19th | 12pm ET<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">While it seems straightforward, there are often so many unwritten rules about art and artifact handling. One of the biggest: gloves or no gloves—and if so, which gloves to use? This webinar walks you through
the pros and cons of the most widely used types of gloves, the newest research on their environmental impact, and the types of objects that can be handled with each. This program is great for emerging professionals, but even if you have years of experience
in the field, you may still have questions. All are welcome! CCAHA Preservation Specialist Katie Lowe will give you the tools to feel much more confident in deciding the best choice for hand and artifact protection in any situation. <o:p></o:p></p>

Oregon Heritage MentorCorps</a> program. MentorCorps stems from a pilot program funded through an IMLS grant in the early 2010s. It has since grown into a fully actualized technical assistance program of the
<a href="https://www.oregon.gov/oprd/oh/pages/commissions.aspx">Oregon Heritage Commission</a> that supports the “Pursue Best Practices” goal of the 2020-2025 <a href="https://www.oregon.gov/oprd/OH/Documents/2020_Oregon_Heritage_Plan.pdf">Oregon Heritage Plan</a>.
Organizations can expect to work on projects alongside volunteer professionals with backgrounds in museum collections management, curatorship, archives, preservation, heritage interpretation, non-profit management, disaster preparedness and much more. <o:p></o:p></p>

The role of MentorCorps is to assist with projects that are challenging the expertise of the staff at these organizations. This can include guidance in project management or planning, grant reviews, collections assessments, policy development, or simply prioritization
of work if folks do not know where to start. Fielding a cadre of mentors with training and experience in the field that are geographically and technically diverse, there are very few projects that MentorCorps cannot assist with in some way.<o:p></o:p></p>

“MentorCorps’ goal is to support organizations in achieving better practices on their way to best practices,” says Cam Amabile, Technical Resources Coordinator for Oregon Heritage. “Our program is meant to serve as a guide to resources, or a stepping stone
on the way to a fully implemented plan or action. We aim to be a program that helps, particularly small organizations with limited capacities, meet their mission without being overwhelmed. To do that we pair them with our experienced practitioners as guides,
with the added benefit of continuing to hone the mentor’s skills.” <o:p></o:p></p>
