The Western Association for Art Conservation (WAAC) held its August 19-21, 2009 Annual Meeting in Juneau, Alaska. The abstracts of the talks, which centered on the theme “Where the Wild Things Are: Conservation in the Extreme” will be printed in the upcoming WAAC newsletter. But, summaries of the papers, as well as information on the impromptu flood recovery efforts at the Alaska State Archives, the “Angels” project at the St. Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church in Juneau and other conference activities are posted on participant and co-organizer Ellen Carrlee’s blog http://ellencarrlee.wordpress.com/
