Donate to our collections

At the Musée de la Gaspésie, we believe that the memories of all those who have worked to build the Gaspé Peninsula as we know it today deserve to be preserved. From politics to education, from agriculture to fishing, from notarized documents to love letters, each document bears witness to the history of our region and its people.
