The Glenbow cultural history collection contains over 100,000 objects originating from many corners of the world, providing insight into the life in Western Canada from the late 19th century to the present day. Items in the collection reveal how people made a living, worshiped, and were governed, what they did to relax, how they dressed and ate, and how family mementos helped create a home in a new land. The cultural history collection also includes important holdings of Alberta pottery, Western Canadian folk studies, northern explorations, numismatics, pressed glass, and textiles.
