Municipal, county, and state arts councils and historic preservation commissions as well as nonprofit arts organizations may be able to suggest names. The Foundation of the American Institute for Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works (FAIC) operates a nationwide referral system through which you can obtain a free, computer-generated list of conservators grouped by location, specialization, and type of service. You can also consult FAIC or a regional conservation center for a list of regional and local conservators’ organizations
