At the discretion of Registration and Curatorial staff, the Museum may choose to lend objects from the Permanent Collection to qualified non-profit cultural and educational institutions, museums, and archives both domestically and internationally. Museum staff will take into consideration the borrower’s capacity to meet recognized best practices in the field regarding object preservation, security, storage, display and transport throughout the proposed loan period. The Museum’s primary focus is the long-term care and preservation of its Permanent Collection and this will be considered alongside loan requests.
To inquire further about this process and to request a loan to an exhibition at your institution, please email Collections@mjhnyc.org with Loan Request in the subject line. If possible, please allow for lead time of at least 6 months prior to exhibition installation.
