Minnesota Discovery Center received a grant through the Arts and cultural Heritage Fund in October 2010 to conduct a wall-to-wall inventory of the object collection. We have an estimated 10,000 + number of objects in the collection that includes everything from the mundane household item to large equipment to artworks.

Our goal: To inventory 10,000 objects by 2013.
Next step: Identify preservation and storage needs to properly care for these historical objects.
By April 27, 2011, Mary Erickson and Jason Scorich have inventoried 3,000 objects! Great job!
