The Cayuga Museum holds tens of thousands of objects that tell the story of Cayuga County, but we have room for only a very small percentage to be on display at any given time. The rest of the collection is kept in storage where proper protection and care are necessary to preserve objects for the future. To help us care for the collection, please consider participating in our Adopt an Artifact program.

Choose an object to adopt from the list below. Your tax deductible adoption donation will go directly to the collections fund, helping us purchase archival supplies such as document boxes, folders, and shelving.
