Donations to the Museum
The museum’s collections department works to build a collection of objects pertinent to the interests of the San Jacinto Museum of History Association, thereby fulfilling the stated mission of the museum to collect and preserve the history of Texas.
We’re looking for quality artifacts that are documented or can be documented as to provenance, date, age, etc. The quality and historical relevance of collection objects is stressed over the condition of the collection objects.
There are specific criteria, means and stipulations applying to all of the museum’s acquisitions. But if it has historical significance that matches our focus, we would like to have it. Sometimes we accept donation of items strictly for purposes of interpretation or education (not as part of the official collection).
