What are your interests in Historic Preservation and restoration?
I think that it's extremely important to preserve and restore our buildings, art, and ruins for future generations to enjoy.
Why are you interested in the San Gemini Historic Preservation Studies Program?
Max, Polly, and Nikos provide a great program. They want to enrich the experiences of all who participate in the program and work very hard to do so. Also, the people of San Gemini were very welcoming and friendly making for a great time.

rabbit glue is one of the most used animal glues in the tempera technique, mostly for the ground (gypsum+rabbit glue) before painting. We have examples since the middle ages, so I'd say it's a pretty resistant material if kept far from humidity.
