Hello, everyone,
The Creston Museum is just beginning to undertake a major reorganisation and
deaccessioning project. Below is the first of probably many lists of things
we are removing from our collections. This one is adding machines,
typewriters, and the like, plus a couple of display cases and some random
other objects, including some West Coast First Nations carvings that, as far
as I can tell, were carved by someone who was not in any way connected to
any First Nations community.
These are being offered to other museums on a first-come, first-served
basis. Receiving museums are responsible for collecting the objects or
paying for shipping from Creston.
Because this is a long, on-going process, we want to move these things out
very quickly to make way for the next lot of artifacts. Please let me know
by 2 December 2015 if you are interested in any of these objects, so we can
make arrangements to get them to you by the middle of January.
Thanks!
Tammy
