Donate Costumes & Props
We Need Your Costumes & Props!
Legacy welcomes donations of props and wardrobe/costume pieces. Please get in touch with us regarding any articles you would like to donate. Below are some guidelines for your donations.
To keep the costume collection at a manageable size, we ask for donations of items that would be most frequently useful and more difficult to come across when needed. Modern clothing is readily available in actors' closets, so we don't need to keep these things in stock. If you are unsure if an item(s) is useful or would like to schedule a time to drop off a donation, feel free to ask.
