Artifact Donations

​

The Alberta Sports Hall of Fame and Museum (ASHFM) recognizes sport excellence, preserves sport history, and educates the public on the contribution of sports to Alberta's History. In order to be able to achieve our mission we welcome and, in fact, rely on the donation of sport artifacts and archival material from our Honoured Members and their families, teams, fans, and members of the general public.

​

If you own an object, document, or photograph related to Alberta's sport history, we would like to hear from you. The ASHFM appreciates your interest in helping to preserve this valuable history, as well as expanding our permanent, and educational display collections.

​

As a not-for-profit corporation and registered charity, the ASHFM is able to issue income tax receipts for qualifying artifact donations.

​

HOW TO DONATE:

If you have material(s) that you would like to donate to our collection feel free to contact us by email: collections@albertasportshall.ca or by scheduling an in-person meeting at the ASHFM. In order for us to better assist you please call 403-341-8614 to book an appointment with our Collections & Exhibit Coordinator.
