Donors to the Sign Conservation Fund can take pride in knowing that their gifts aide the restoration, rehabilitation and preservation efforts of The Neon Museum.
Your gift to The Neon Museum's Sign Conservation Fund will help maintain the collection for future generations.
The museum takes great care to determine the best way to maintain each sign’s integrity while not losing the artifact’s original message. Sign conservation strategies vary depending on the need of a particular piece. The Museum always uses qualified experts to perform conservation work and focuses on three forms of sign conservation: full restoration, rehabilitation and preservation.
Full Restoration returns the sign to its original state as much as possible. Fully restoring a sign is very costly since it requires updating the electrical components and all neon tubing or glass bulbs.
Rehabilitation involves resurfacing or repainting the sign’s coloring and topography. Rehabilitation does not include electrical work. 
Preservation Strategies strive to prevent further sun and wind damage to the sign on the outside and remove debilitating debris that could damage the sign from the inside.
