Donating
Items to the Collection:
The Department of Anthropology actively collects materials
from the indigenous cultures of western North America
(exclusive of Mexico) and the Pacific Rim, including
all Pacific islands and East Asia. Select items from
outside these areas may also be accessioned when they
compliment and enhance current holdings. The Department
relies almost exclusively on donations to expand its
collection. Although our collection is primarily composed
of ethnographic materials, items from any time period
may by considered. Objects retaining good provenance
data are preferred.
If you are interesting in donating to the department,
please contact Russell Hartman at
rhartman @ calacademy. org or (415) 379-5385.
