DONATE AN OBJECT

Safeguard treasures of the past, for the future

The Hellenic Museum features a diverse range of exhibitions which showcase the rich and varied history, art and culture of Hellenism. A key component of delivering these exhibitions and programs is the collections the Museum receives as loans or donations.

 

We greatly appreciate the many offers we receive from generous individuals looking to donate items to our collection. Unfortunately, due to limited collection space and curatorial capacity, space for new items is highly limited. All new acquisitions are considered through a rigorous process to ensure they are a suitable fit with our existing collections, education and public programming, and the Hellenic Museum's overall vision.​
