Andrew Hughes, Conservator


I am currently working on the objects chosen for display in the new museum galleries.


How I ended up at RAMM

After working in the pharmaceutical industry for some years, I decided on a change of career studying conservation. I have a specific interest in ethnography and social history and joined the RAMM conservation team in October 2008.


Best part of my job

I am in the privilaged position of working extremely closely with objects, getting to appreciate the skills and craftmanship of those who created them - hands on.

   

What I'm looking forward to seeing/doing in the refurbished museum

I'm looking forward to seeing those objects that I have spent many hours of work on and pointing these out to to friends, relatives and anyone who'll listen.
