Donating Artifacts to the Museum

We appreciate your interest in the Whitehead Memorial Museum, and we welcome and solicit those items that reflect our unique history. Unfortunately, due to severe space limitations, we can only accept items unique to Val Verde County and the city of Del Rio and CANNOT accept items that are currently in wide circulation or in disrepair. Thank you again for your interest and understanding.

Please note: Items donated to the museum will have to be approved by the Museum Director to be entered into our collection. An item is not accepted/approved until an Artifact Donation Contract/ Artifact Loan Contract is signed and filed at the museum.
