What to Tell Us
The more information you can tell us about your object, the better. Who used it? How and where did they use it? Who made it? How did you come to have it? What Saskatchewan story does it tell? We also need to know the object is in good condition and free from contaminants like mold, unsafe chemicals or hazardous materials such as asbestos.

Send Us Pictures
Digital photographs of the object will help us evaluate your offer. Please send an image of what the object looks like today. Historical photographs of the object in use, or of the people who used it, are also valuable. If your object is accepted, we would be grateful for copies of these photos and the permission to use them in exhibitions, publications and online.

What Happens Next
Your offer will be evaluated by the Museum Board. We will check to make sure the condition of the object is suitable, compare it to artifacts already in our collection and determine if it meets the museum needs. A museum member will contact you once a decision is made to accept or decline your offer. We will usually have a response within two to four weeks.

How Old Does it Have to Be?
We appreciate all offers but we can not accept everything. Storage space and resources are limited. Part of managing the artifact collection at the museum is having to respectfully say “no” to new offers of object that are already well represented in our collection.

The Paperwork
If your object is accepted by the Bresaylor Museum, we will send you a donation agreement which transfers unrestricted ownership to the museum. Come in to sign the form or return the signed copy by mail. We are unable to accept loans or donations with limiting conditions such as requiring the artifact to go on exhibit.
