GIFTING OF ARTIFACTS. The museum is always ready to accept gifts that have historical significance to Idaho. Examples of items of interest include, but are not limited to, old letters, manuscripts, photographs, books, ledgers, clothing, furniture, and weapons. Museum staff can visit with you to determine whether items have historical significance, or you can bring them to the museum for evaluation. It is helpful to have as much historical information as possible about each artifact. When was it made? Who made it? Who has owned it? What is the story or stories related to the artifact? What is it and how was it used? Why is it important? The museum will have you sign a “statement of gift” which assigns the artifact to the museum and which can be used by you as a tax deduction as defined by law. By gifting artifacts to the museum, you are guaranteeing that the item will be properly cared for and preserved according to recognized museum standards. The goal of the museum is to preserve the past for the future. We invite your contributions. | |
