Collecting every artifact for the museum takes a ton of effort and a bit of luck.
Early into Stardew Valley, Gunther from the Museum will come to you with a request.
Completing the entire collection will earn you a Stardrop, which permanently increases your max energy.
How the museum works
The Museum is open from 8am to 6pm, except during town festivals.
It is located in the southeast corner of town, next to the Blacksmith.
Most of the rewards are nice bonuses, but unimportant, with three exceptions.
There are 95 items total: 53 Minerals and 42 Artifacts.
Minerals are typically found via mining, although there are a couple of other ways to obtain them.
The last and largest group are the Geode Minerals, which are obtained from cracking open geodes.
Others can appear in Artifact Troves, which can be purchased from the Desert Trader for 5 Omni Geodes.
Artifacts appear in fishing treasure chests occasionally as well, although not all of them can.
Check out the Stardew Valley Wiki pages forMineralsandArtifactsfor exact probabilities of each individual item.
