Packing, Art Handling, and Crating Information Network
Founded in 1989, PACIN (Packing, Art Handling, and Crating Information Network) is dedicated to expanding the network of information and resources available to the museum and art handling communities with the goal of improving art handling professionalism. Areas of focus include packing, crating, shipping, rigging, storage, installation, mount making, exhibition fabrication, technical and material updates, educational and training opportunities, and job descriptions and responsibilities.
