The Purpose of Preservation: Conservator and Author Rosa Lowinger

Join us for an exciting exploration and conversation on the preservation of historic sites from Rosa Lowinger!

Key conservation projects carried out by Lowinger – including Vizcaya Museum & Gardens in Miami will be shown to illustrate her vast portfolio of work.
