The theme of the 11th biennial NATCC is "Embellished Fabrics: Conserving Surface Manipulation & Decoration". You are cordially invited to join us for a week of expanding your conservation skills and knowledge at the National School of Restoration, Conservation and Museum Studies (ENRCyM: www.encrym.edu.mx<http://www.encrym.edu.mx> ), located in Coyoacán, one of the most charming and historic neighborhoods in Mexico City. There will be three days of workshops and local tours on November 6-8. Two days of scholarly papers, accompanied by bilingual translations will be presented on November 9-10, along with a poster session. The evening of November 8 will feature our Keynote speaker, Alejandro de Ávila Blomberg, the noted anthropologist, botanist, and textile scholar. This presentation will be followed by a reception at the Museo Soumaya, located in the Polanco neighborhood. On Saturday, November 11, a post-conference excursion to the renowned World Heritage site of Xochicalco will take place.
