Donate online


Donate an object

We have been collecting items for almost 120 years and our galleries would not be what they are today without the generosity of our donors.  We are currently only acquiring objects which have a strong link to Horsham history and that we do not have existing examples within the collection.  We are particularly looking to acquire objects prior to the 19th century.

A gift in your will

Our museum often holds a special place in visitor’s hearts and memories. Perhaps you may wish to consider including a bequest to us in your will. Leaving a gift to Horsham Museum & Art Gallery will help us to safeguard and share the history of Horsham District for future generations, and any gift whether large or small, is greatly appreciated.

If you are interested in discussing a donation or have any questions at all, please email museum@horsham.gov.uk or call us on 01403 254959.
