Donations to the Strawbery Banke Collection
Strawbery Banke Museum focuses on the people who lived in the Puddle Dock neighborhood that is now the museum campus and in Portsmouth and the greater Seacoast area. Their stories, their records, their clothes, tools, and decorative arts form the core of the museum's 30,000 object Collection.
Based on these criteria, to discuss the donation of an item of material culture to the Museum, please contact Elizabeth Farish, Curator at efarish[at]sbmuseum.org or 603.422.7526.
