[BCMA] Fwd: Insurance on artifacts

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv]

Hi Anne,

For many years now, the Kitimat Museum & Archives has held collections insurance through the Canadian Museums Association Insurance Program.  With a CMA membership, we can access this program, providing a group rate that benefits many museums across Canada seeking collections and other insurance.

Visit https://www.museums.ca/site/mbr/membership_benefits/insurance - Collections Coverage under Business Insurance.

You can direct message me if you have questions.

Subject: [BCMA] Fwd: Insurance on artifacts

I am asking this on behalf of the Nechako Valley Historical Society.

I am sure this has been asked many times before, but we had a long discussion at our last meeting about insuring the museum artifacts.

The buildings are insured, and we have director’s insurance.

I need information on the pros and cons of purchasing artifact insurance.

If you do have insurance, where do you get it and how do you put a value on an artifact that can never be replaced?

Thank you for your input.

Anne,
