DONATE ITEMS TO OUR COLLECTION
We are grateful for the generosity and support of our community in helping preserve and share our state’s rich history. As of February 1, 2025, the Utah Historical Society will no longer be accepting new donations for our collections as we prepare for the grand opening of the Museum of Utah in 2026. This decision allows us to focus on the care and preservation of materials already in our stewardship and to prepare objects from our collections for exhibitions. Once the Museum of Utah is in operation, we will reopen our process to consider new donations. If you would like more information, please contact our Engagement Room at [email protected].
