Protect Your Outdoor Murals

An annual inspection and documentation of your murals is an important first step in an ongoing maintenance program, and we are pleased to provide you with this Condition Report form to assist you with this task. By recording the materials and condition of your murals and retaining the report in your files, changes in condition from year to year can be readily detected. This will allow you to address problems and deterioration before major unsightly and perhaps irreparable damage occurs.

This information would also be useful for us as we seek to understand which mural materials and techniques perform well in the Canadian climate and which ones exhibit problems. We would therefore be very appreciative if you would share your findings with us by sending a copy of your completed Condition Report form to:

Debra Daly Hartin, Senior Paintings Conservator
Canadian Conservation Institute
1030 Innes Road
Ottawa ON  K1A 0M5

Fax: 1-613-998-4721
Email: debra_daly_hartin@pch.gc.ca

We thank you very much for your collaboration. This information will assist us in forming suitable guidelines for the creation of future murals, and allow us to provide the best possible advice on this topic.
