Time is ticking, and every second counts when you're working in conservation science! At Preserve Lab, you will take on the challenge of saving a variety of materials from deterioration and decay. Through hands-on activities, you'll explore how biology, physics, chemistry, and engineering work together with art, history, and culture to protect objects from the past and preserve them for the future. Throughout the day, we’ll investigate one big question: How do we make things last using science?
