Welcome to the website for the British Association of Paintings Conservators-Restorers (BAPCR). 

The BAPCR was founded in 1943 as The Association of British  Picture Restorers (ABPR).
We are the professional organisation for conservator-restorers of paintings and have over 400 members 
internationally. Membership is open to paintings conservator-restorers from the private sector and from
museums or public collections of art; to conservation scientists, students on conservation courses, and 
trainees in private studios.

The object of the association is to advance the profession by providing means for continuing professional 
development and to provide a service to the public.
