21st ICOM-CC Triennial Conference - Cultural Connections in Conservation

🌍 Welcome to the 21st ICOM-CC Triennial Conference in Oslo, 2026!
Join us in the heart of Norway from 14-18 September 2026 for an enriching experience that brings together conservators, scientists, curators, and other museum professionals to explore Cultural Connections in Conservation.

Oslo has undergone a remarkable transformation, often referred to as "the Norwegian Miracle" by renowned curator Hans Ulrich Obrist. Over the past decade, significant investments in art, cultural heritage, and conservation have turned Oslo into a vibrant cultural hub, highlighted by institutions such as The Munch Museum, the newly opened National Museum, and the upcoming Museum of the Viking Age.

This conference offers an excellent opportunity to engage with fellow professionals on vital topics that frame our conservation efforts today, focusing on both societal and professional connections. 🤝

Key Themes:

• Strengthening cultural identities through conservation
• Addressing global challenges in the conservation field
• Navigating past, present, and future connections to material culture
• Advocating for diversity and cross-cultural dialogue
• Bridging inter-generational cultural divides

With events and accommodation conveniently located within walking distance in Oslo, you’ll have ample time for engaging discussions and networking.

Join us in fostering inclusive collaborations and innovative approaches to conservation!
