All financial donations, large or small, are very welcome and will have a lasting benefit to the Theatre Collection. For example, a small gift would buy a conservation-grade archive storage box or a book for the library, while a more substantial donation would help us continue our valuable outreach work, such as our public exhibition programme.

Most importantly, we always need funds to enable us to carry out vital cataloguing work. We are currently seeking major donations to cover staff and conservation costs for specific cataloguing projects. These donations would enable an individual collection to be catalogued, conserved and made available via our online database.

Bequests
