The Conservation Center, based in Chicago, IL, stands out as the largest and most extensive private art conservation laboratory in the United States. Boasting 40 years of expertise, the Center leads the way in art restoration, continuously innovating treatments to match the dynamic art landscape. From renowned private collections to esteemed museums and galleries, the Center has safeguarded fine art for a range of clients, including insurance companies and corporations.

Since its establishment in 1983, the Center has expanded from a small team of painting conservators to a staff of 30 specialists covering various restoration disciplines. In 2012, a significant move saw the Center relocate to a cutting-edge facility in West Town, transforming a historic warehouse with the help of Studio Gang Architects. The Center's conservators are highly skilled in restoring a wide array of items, including paintings, photographs, textiles, furniture, rare books, frames, and sculptures.
