Collections come in all shapes and sizes. From comic books and stamps to antique perfume bottles and depression glass, a collection can be a varied and unique as the person doing the collecting. For the new exhibit: Questers Collect Museum Windsor has partnered with local Questers to showcase some of the unique personal collections found in Windsor-Essex County. 

Questers collect features a wide variety of collections including vintage purses, walking sticks, samplers, motto ware, beer steins, Vaseline glass and much more. In addition, artifacts that were restored through Quester donations, such as the bar from Abars, will also be on display. 

The Questers, as an organization, was formed by Jessie Elizabeth Bardens of Fort Worth Washington in 1944. The first Canadian chapter, Maple Leaf #311, was opened in Windsor in 1967. Today, the organization has grown to include approximately 650 chapters in Canada and the United States with 9 located in Ontario (all of which are actually found in Essex County). Questers seek to educate by research and study antiques and to donate funds to the preservation and restoration of artifacts, existing memorials, historic buildings, landmarks, and educational purposes.
