Most objects in the museum’s collections have been donated by former and current residents of the Chippewa Valley. We look for items that have a local story, are unique to our collection, in good condition, and can safely be stored in our facilities. Donated materials are preserved in our climate controlled storage spaces for future generations and made accessible to the public for use in projects like exhibits, educational programs, and for research.
To make a donation to the Chippewa Valley Museum Collections, contact Diana Peterson, Curator of Collections at 715-834-7871 or email d.peterson@cvmuseum.com.
