Visitor Object Consideration Process
Please be advised that while every effort will be made to respond to your enquiry, any item/s brought to the museum to be examined or to be deposited, first require the Curator to be notified. If you have not made a prior appointment to see the Curator and they are not immediately available to see you, please fill out the form HERE and it will be forwarded to the appropriate Curator.
This is a three stage process:
For safekeeping the museum does not accept items at the reception desk, so please retain your item with you until the Curator has contacted you.
