== Projects and exhibitions ==

In 2017 the Maribor office of the institute entered an international project called ''Tracing the Art of the Straub Family''. Together with the [[University of Ljubljana]] and the partners from Croatia, Germany and Austria they formed a research consortium that explores the legacy of a prolific family of artists who lived and worked in the region &ndash; Johann Baptist (1704-1784), active in München and Wien; Philipp Jakob (1706-1774), active in Graz; Joseph (1712-1784), active in Maribor; Johann Georg (1721-1773) active in Radgona; and  Franz Anton (1726-1774/6), active in Zagreb. 

Temporary exhibitions are sometimes organised by the office. In 2009 the exhibition ''Zgodovinski parki in vrtovi'' [Historic Parks and Gardens] was presented, accompanied by a monography.

== Awards ==

For their achievement in the conservation of Slovene cultural heritage, employees of the office have won several [[Stele Award|Stele acknowledgements and Stele Awards]], namely: [[Janez Mikuž]] (2010), [[Viktor Gojkovič]] (2007), [[Mirko Šoštarič]] (1995), and [[Andreja Volavšek]] (1991). The Stele recognition was received by [[Neva Sulič Urek]] (2008) and [[Bine Kovačič]] (2007).
