EMERGENCY!
Preparing for Disasters andConfronting the Unexpectedin Conservation

In this meeting, colleagues will address
in a broad-based way the impact of past,present, and future disasters on the protection of cultural property. In addition,
presentations will address confronting theunexpected in conservation—whether it
occurs during the treatment of an artifact
or during a natural disaster.
The scope includes immediate reactions,such as the application of crowd-mapping technology to aid response efforts,
as well as longer term developments
stemming from disasters. In addition tosituations caused by natural disasters,
Preparing for Disasters can include
accidents, terrorist activities, and climatechange. Confronting the Unexpected
can involve surprises encountered along
the way in any treatment and can be
expanded to include all stakeholders,even future ones, who are affected by adisaster.
Please enjoy the many tours, sessions,and learning experiences available at thisjoint meeting in Montreal!

Special thanks to the Samuel H.
Kress Foundation for its support ofour annual meeting programs.

43rd Annual CAC
Conference and Workshop
Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada
June 6-10, 2017

Let Saskatchewan’s “living skies” be the canopy to your 2017 CAC
Conference and Workshop experience! Saskatchewan conservators arethrilled to be hosting the 43rd Annual Conference and Workshop of theCanadian Association for Conservation of Cultural Property, from June
6-10th, 2017, in the province’s capital of Regina, located on Treaty Fourland. Meetings will take place at the DoubleTree by Hilton, located in thevibrant heart of the city, with opportunity to visit cultural centers such as
the MacKenzie Art Gallery, the R.C.M.P. Heritage Centre and the Royal
Saskatchewan Museum.
Although relatively young as a province, Saskatchewan’s human presence
extends back at least 11 000 years. While famous for images of prairie andfarmland, the majority of Saskatchewan’s landscape is boreal forest, andboasts no-where-else-to-be-found features such as the Cypress Hills (thehighest elevation between Banff, Alberta and Newfoundland and Labrador),the Athabasca Sand Dunes, and the healing salt waters of Little Manitou
Lake. The province’s cultural mosaic is as rich and varied as the flora andfauna. This is the first time Saskatchewan has hosted the CAC conference
and workshop. We look forward to showing you the gentle colours of asouthern Saskatchewan spring, and encourage you to venture off the TransCanada Highway in your travels – there is so much to discover!
