The Tapestries and Textiles Restoration Laboratory constantly encourages research and technological experimentation, dedicating particular attention to the evolution of materials, machines and laboratory tools.
All the laboratory staff, whose skills and knowledge are already certified by highly specialised schools of restoration, participate periodically in further training programmes and educational exchanges at national and international level.
Educational courses are being planned for young people holding diplomas from Italian or foreign restoration schools. Internships lasting for a maximum of six months are available to a variable number of participants on the basis of projects and availability (infostages.musei@scv.va).
