The Arts Society Heritage Volunteers are teams of committed non-specialist volunteers who work under the guidance of curators and other professionals to help conserve our heritage.
Heritage Volunteers undertake projects for:
- museums
- National Trust properties
- historic houses
- libraries and gardens
They give their time to care for collections, record documents and act as guides and stewards.
At present we have no volunteers for such work in Wilmslow, but if you are interested in this, or have ideas for projects, please contact us on membership.taswilmslow@proton.me .
Projects undertaken by other Arts Society groups include:
- On-site conservation of books, manuscripts, archives and maps
- Cataloguing documents and archival listing
- Conservation of arms and armour, medals and military silver
- Preventative conservation of textiles, replica work and creation of period costumes
- Guiding and stewarding in museums, historic houses and gardens
