S?edav VA?AKI museum research collection box rehousing project [this project seeks funding to design, purchase, and ship acid-neutral boxes to rehouse research collections in the archaeological repository collection of s?edav VA?AKI museum (museum). The pueblo grande museum auxiliary, INC. Doing business as the friends of pueblo grande museum is submitting this grant application on behalf of the museum. If funded, this project will achieve the following objectives: to address the recommendation regarding existing boxes from the museum?s 2019 conservation assessment program report; to improve the museum?s ability to preserve and care for its archaeological research collection. The museum staff will work with an archival supplies vendor to design the boxes to best fit the collection. The vendor will produce the boxes and ship them to the museum. The museum collections staff and volunteers will use the boxes to rehouse materials in the research collection and this project would purchase materials to rehouse approximately 8% of the collection.]
