Donate an Item to the Museum’s Collection

The Naugatuck Historical Society is always looking to enrich its exhibits, collections and archives. We look for items that pertain to Naugatuck’s history, geography, and local culture.

If we do not feel your item is within the scope of our collection, or we lack the ability to preserve and care for it, we will advise you on other organizations and resources as best we can.

To begin the process, please contact us by phone or email, and provide us with a brief summary of what you wish to donate. Our Collections Manager does his best to respond in a timely manner.

Donations can be made on Saturdays at the museum from 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

Our temporary custody form can be found below. Please fill this out if you are interested in making a donation.
