According to the National Archives, 70° Fahrenheit is the preferred temperature that is optimal for the preservation of artifacts in exhibition spaces. It is the degree in which archival materials should be protected for long-term conservation. As curators, we assist you with crafting your narrative. We offer archival, preservation, exhibition, design and editing services. In this digital age, we fuse humanities with technology.
