DONATIONS TO THE GIFT SHOP
Do you have an old china set taking up space in the attic? Clean out your storage while supporting local heritage! We are always looking to grow our stock of vintage kitchen wares and linens to sell in our gift shop. Proceeds from these sales go directly to the Lougheed House Conservation Society and mean that we can offer more affordable programs, engaging exhibits, and community fun! We’re looking for:
China place settings, teapots, and tea sets
Crystal glasses, dishes, and vases
Milk glass vases, pitchers, etc.
Vintage Pyrex dishes and sets
Hand-embroidered tablecloths and small linens
What aren’t we looking for? Silver items, clothing, and anything that is scratched or chipped. Keep in mind that a donation to the gift shop is not a donation to the collection. Ready to donate? Contact our guest services team below to set up a drop-off time today!
Donation of Artifacts
The Lougheed House collection is focused on items related to the active and varied use of the house and gardens from the time it was built until today. This includes items related to the different occupants specific their time in the House:
Senator Sir James and Lady Isabella Lougheed, and their immediate family (1891-1936)
Dominion-Provincial Youth Training Program (1939-1941)
Canadian Women’s Army Corps (1941-1947)
Canadian Red Cross Society (1947-1979)
To inquire about making a donation to the Lougheed House collection, please contact our curatorial team below.
This year, the Lougheed House Conservation Society aims to match last year’s fundraising success, with a goal of surpassing $95,000 to support our community. It will cost approximately 16% to 20% of the total to raise this, well below the Canada Revenue Agency’s acceptable level of 35%. The funds from this campaign will support the greatest needs.
