11th – 13th September 2023, Redworth Hall Hotel, Co. Durham
With the current social, economic, and environmental uncertainties being faced by many countries globally, it is fitting that this year’s International Arts & Antiquities Security Forum (IAASF) conference is discussing the topic of Protecting Cultural Venues During Uncertain Times. The conflict in Ukraine has highlighted that ‘conflict’ creates further uncertainty that has adversely impacted cultural venues and assets that will be felt by future generations not only nationally but also regionally and globally.
The uncertainty caused and posed by these threats needs to be proactively addressed to ensure the survivability of our global art and cultural heritage. This conference brings together arts and cultural heritage experts from around the world to help delegates understand the threats that exist and to be aware of professional practices, which help reduce the risks faced.
The conference brings together educational sessions, opportunities for shared learning, the latest innovations that exist in the market to support protective security efforts, and time to network with peers and colleagues from around the world.
As well as a full programme of educational sessions, there is the opportunity to join delegates at a Gala Dinner where fundraising activities will seek to support the protection of cultural venues and assets in Ukraine caused by this unlawful conflict.
