Artifact
Donations
If you are considering
donating any items to the society, please contact us before bringing or sending any material to the society.
We consider several issues when evaluating a donation:
- Does the item(s) support the Society's mission?
- What is the relationship of
the item(s) to the Town of Veteran
- When, how and by whom was the item(s) used?
Unfortunately we cannot accept everything. Limited storage space, duplication of objects and condition of the
offered piece affect the decision to accept an object. The Historical Society staff review each offer.
As a donation is accepted, a "Memorandum of Gift" will be given to the Donor which tranfers title of
the donation to the Society.
The Historical Society cannot conduct appraisals for
tax purposes, nor can we appraise items as a service. It is the responsibility of the donor to have the donation appraised
before any item is donated.
We would be happy to answer any questions you may have
about contributing to the Society. Please contact any officer.
Memorial
and Honorary Gifts
Memorial and Honorary
gifts are also welcome. You may wish to donate as a friend, as a business, in honor of or in memory of a loved one. The
name will be recorded in a log and displayed in the Museum.
