If you would like to see The Salvation Army Museum of the West come to a corps or divisional event near you, please contact your local Corps Officer or Divisional Head Quarters.  The Museum of the West is willing to work with corps and divisions to bring the rich history of the USA Western Territory to all parts of the territory.

The Museum of the West can either set up a display to bring to your special event or can offer pre-packaged events.

Currently the Museum of the West is able to offer photo identification nights, and corps history workshops.  The museum is currently in the process of expanding these offerings, and is willing to work with divisions or corps to meet their specific needs.

Photo Identification nights are events aimed towards long time Salvationists and retired officers.  The museum brings a couple hundred photos of unidentified Salvationists, buildings, or events and asks the participants to share any knowledge they may have regarding the photos.  This event helps the museum by filling in some of the gaps in our territory’s history, while also offering the opportunity for some of our most honored Salvationists to meet and reminisce of times gone by.

The corps history workshop is and event that will teach all participants how to go about building a corps history.  It includes both lectures and tips on how to collect information regarding local history as well as discussion times where everyone can benefit from the knowledge and experience of the group.

To schedule either one of these events for your local area please have your Corps Officer or DHQ contact the Museum Coordinator.
