Mission: Ica works with member institutions, corporate and individual collectors to conserve and preserve their objects, artifacts, and documents. Ica also provides workshops, lectures, and symposia to train collections care professionals and the general public on issues surrounding art and artifact preservation.

Programs: Ica is the nations' oldest fine art conservation center offering conservation and restoration services for paintings, murals, art objects, furniture, statuary, monuments, pottery, paper products, manuscripts, books, photographs, posters, flags, uniforms, dresses, and metal or clay ceramics. The highly trained staff provides service to churches, zoos, libraries, hospitals, foundations, government agencies, corporations, universities, museums and collectors.

the very active education and outreach department offers a number of public programs. Ica has collaborated on educational initiatives with over thirty cultural and academic institutions across the state of ohio. This allows ica to reach more demographically and geographically diverse audience, while maximizing the impact of its limited program dollars. Ica has made contact with numerous individuals via outreach efforts, many of whom had no prior knowledge of ica.
