National museum appeals to Kenyans to donate items of historical value

Fossils of different species displayed at the paleontology department of the Nairobi National Museum

The National Museums of Kenya (NMK) is asking Kenyans to donate cultural artefacts and other items, as it seeks to build a museum on the country’s early history.

“NMK is desirous of acquiring relevant objects or memorabilia by way of donation, long-term loan or any other suitable arrangement”, NMK says in a public appeal.

The proposed museum dubbed a ‘Museum of Heroism’, will include key aspects such as “the early history and peoples of Kenya, colonisation, independence [and] military history..”

The museums body is also looking for traditional farm tools and equipment, body adornments, furniture, crafts, traditional attire, court artefacts, pass books and religious artefacts.
