Sponsor A Project!

You can help the Marin History Museum by donating to targeted projects or collections! 

• Marin The Muse - In May 2025, we will install a new exhibit highlighting landscape art inspired by the beauty of Marin County. Your sponsorship will help defray the costs of installation and printing of a colorful catalog.
• Dehumidifiers for Pamaron - Our collections facility houses hundreds of thousands of artifacts and photographs, and it is vital for their preservation to keep the humidity levels low.
• Newspaper Collection - Help us preserve and digitize our collection of newspapers from around the county.
• Education Room - Every year, we invite 3rd graders to The Boyd Gate House to learn about life in 19th-century Marin. We would love to enhance the experience with interactive displays and instructive panels.
• Exhibits - Our rotating exhibits at The Boyd Gate House use descriptive panels that require the services of designers and printers.
• Textile Collection - Our collection of dozens of dresses, hats, and accessories need boxes and storage cabinets

Our steadfast commitment to the maintenance and preservation of our collection and programs depends upon your support. Please consider giving to MHM so that we can ensure the museum’s continued success in preserving and sharing the region’s history for future generations.
