Item specific and general collection surveys as well as collection treatments have been performed regionally by Belmont Hills Art Conservation Studios for museums and historical societies. Funding for these surveys has been provided, in part, by Save America’s Treasures, IMLS, Pew, Luce, and Mellon Foundations.

Disaster planning and mitigation services are offered by Belmont Hills Art Conservation Studios - from hurricane Floyd in 1998 to treatments and surveys of several area house museum collections performed after ruinous fires. As a result of these events, we have developed close working relationships with insurance adjustors and appraisers. These associations allow us to put clients in touch with professionals who can offer guidance and support after disasters occur. A note on insurance: unfortunately individual and institutional collections are often under insured or not properly insured. We urge frequent policy reviews and can offer suggestions for those with art collections.
