Practical Advice for Preserving Family Treasures


Overwhelmed by heirlooms? Vexed by vintage valuables? Flummoxed by fading photos?

Join us for a workshop, Practical Advice for Preserving Family Treasures, at 4 p.m. on Sunday, March 4 at Ivoryton Library, 106 Main Street, Ivoryton.

Led by Essex Historical Society Director Melissa Josefiak, this interactive session will help attendees make sensible decisions about what to keep (and what not to), and it will offer practical storage solutions and low-budget ideas for preserving your most meaningful items. The workshop includes hands-on demonstrations, sample preservation products and tough (but thoughtful) answers to the question, “What should I do with all this stuff?”

The workshop, which is co-sponsored by Ivoryton Library and Essex Historical Society, is free, but seating is limited. For more information, call the library at 860-767-1252.
