Works of art are accepted at the AACC by pre-arrangement only. To have an object in your collection treated or examined, or to arrange for a consultation, please contact the Center at 404-733-4589 for an appointment.

Treatment cost is based on time and materials required, not on the value of the object. AACC conservators do not appraise objects. Please contact an expert in a field related to your object. See a list of appraisers >>.

Staff members are available to advise on shipping objects to the AACC. If an object is too large, heavy or fragile to be safely transported to AACC, ask about a site visit. We cannot accept shipments without pre-arrangement, and strongly recommend that private owners personally deliver their works. If third-party delivery is necessary, we recommend the use of professional shippers.
