We have partnered with the Phillips Library of the Peabody Essex Museum to temporarily house and catalogue our archival collection, which is currently on deposit with the Phillips Library and searchable in their PhilCat Catalogue. Please visit the Phillips Library website for open hours, accessibility details, and to search for Lynn Historical Society archival holdings on the online database PhilCat.

The Lynn Museum relies on generous donations of both funds and Lynn-related objects and archives to strengthen our collection. However, like many museums and historical societies, we have limited space to store new collection donations.

If you are interested in donating objects to our collection, please share any images, object descriptions, and provenance to director@lynnmuseum.org.
