“Looking Back/Moving Forward”
As we enter the mid-2020s, we would like to look at how our profession has changed after tumultuous start of the decade, and how we are planning for the future. While our last convention in 2022 looked at the adaptation in our industry propelled by the events of 2020, this year we focus on how those changes have become no longer reactive, but the new way of doing things.

Student Scholarship Program
To help encourage a new generation of art handlers, we had four art students from the Kansas City Art Institute attend our conference. They have also received a one-year membership to PACCIN so they can stay connected with us in the future.

Brent Powell generously sponsored these students to attend the conference. He worked at the Nelsons-Atkins as Assistant Superintendent of Collections (1986-89), then became the Chief Preparator of Packing & Storage (1989-1999) and served two terms as PACCIN Board Chair, 1990-2000 and 2008-2014.
“PACCIN gave me the gift to meet and work with people from all over the world and help
bring the art handlers up and out of the basements. Credit to our professional skills is why
you are here at this great Museum attending this great conference with your colleagues in
the museum industry!” - Brent Powell
