I know that the ethnographical museum the Tropenmuseum in Amsterdam has
consultation days for visitors every second and last tuesday of each month.
People can bring their artifacts and these will be looked at by the several
curators of the museum. Its website is www.kit.nl, you will probably find
more info there,
