Artifact Collection
The Jasper Yellowhead Museum and Archives house over 3000 artifacts in the collection storage.  Some of the more interesting items include woolen bathing suits worn at Miette Hot Springs, wooden shovels used on the Skyline Trail in 1911, and many beautiful examples of Suzzette Swift’s beadwork.  The collection continues to grow with donations of new artifacts arriving regularly.

Projects
We have just begun the “Collections Access” project which will make more of the artifact collection available to the public.  During this project we will be updating and adding to our existing artifact database.  This database also includes photographs of the artifacts.  Upon completion of this project a computer terminal will be available at the museum for visitors to view the entire collection.
Project partially funded by the Government of Canada through the Department of Canadian Heritage Museum Assistance Program.
