Many of the objects and archival material in our collection have been generously gifted to us from donors, some coming from local residents in Aberdeenshire and others from as far afield as Australia and New Zealand. The items are historically important and of local, regional and even national significance. Consequently, future generations are able to enjoy these objects, learning from the past to enrich their lives today.
We appreciate offers of donations and loans to the collections. We accept these in line with our collection policy.
