South Australian Collections

The National Trust South Australia maintains a property portfolio of Heritage Buildings and Museums which are open to the public. Some properties feature interpretive displays drawing on the history and setting of the sites and offer a rich and diverse collection of Australian historical objects and material held in trust for all South Australian’s.

We welcome the donation of objects that will complement and fulfill our current collections.

Each donation request is thoughtfully considered by the National Trust Collections Officer, the CEO, and appropriate governing committees to determine if the gift is in line with the specific criteria for the acquisition and acceptance of donations.

As outlined in the National Trust’s Collections Policy; any object accepted into the National Trust’s collection should be consistent with the institution’s mission, be relevant, and be properly cared for.

If you are interested in making the gift of an object to the National Trust of South Australia, please complete some details in the Collection Object Donation Form and then please forward an email to the below. Our Collections officer will assess if we are able to accept the item and contact you as soon as possible.
