Before an artifact or antiquity reaches Colonial Williamsburg’s Historic Area or our Art Museums, it is analyzed, examined, treated, and documented by a team of conservation professionals, interns, and volunteers. The Conservation department, which includes eight discipline-specific labs, a materials analysis lab and a Preventive conservation group, perform their duties in strict accordance with the Code of Ethics of the American Institute for Conservation of Historic & Artistic Works.

Housed in a 75,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art building on the Bruton Heights campus, conservators work hand in hand with curators to preserve the cultural property in the Colonial Williamsburg collections.
