We are now accepting submissions for Dyes in History and Archaeology 33, which will be taking place at the University of Glasgow, Scotland, UK on October 30th and
31st, 2014. The conference is organised by the Centre for Textile Conservation and Technical Art History and will include an array of social events. DHA meetings are dedicated to the interdisciplinary exchange of the latest research in the
history, production, application, characterisation, and preservation of natural and synthetic dyes and organic pigments relevant to cultural heritage and the arts worldwide. The meetings aim to attract scholars, students, heritage professionals
and independent researchers across the humanities, sciences, arts, history, ethnography and conservation from local, national and international universities, research institutions and heritage organisations.
