Historic Collections

Museum collection center shelving with antique furniture
The Longmont Museum’s collection includes more than 17,000 three-dimensional objects, 10,000 photographs, and thousands of documents relating to Longmont and the St. Vrain Valley. They chronicle everyday life – farmers working in their fields, ordinary workers in local factories, traveling businessmen, and much more.

 

The photograph and document collections are accessible to researchers – contact Curator of History Elizabeth Beaudoin for an appointment.

 

The Museum collects to both preserve for future generations and to exhibit. While the Museum is committed to regular displays from our collections, like most museums we cannot display more than a small fraction of our collection at any one time. Please contact Elizabeth Beaudoin with questions about donations to the Museum’s collections.
