Role in The Community
The Museum acts as a centre for a number of heritage and community activities. The Round Table, the local model railway club and various other organisations hold events there.
The Museum is also used as a venue for public lectures and a start point for guided tours to places in the locality. In March 2007, the Museum hosted the "Spring in Sussex" rally of the 'Original Surrey Chapter UK' of Harley Davidson owners. 20 classic Harley Davidson motorcycles congregated at the Museum. In April 2007 the Museum participated in the "Your Big Sussex Weekend" event organised by East Sussex County Council.

“Certainly parents play a crucial role in the lives of individuals who are intellectually gifted or creatively talented.

“My role in society, or any artist or poet’s role, is to try and express what we all feel. Not to tell people how to feel. Not as a preacher, not as a leader, but as a reflection of us all.”
—John Lennon (1940–1980)
“I wish glib and indiscriminate critics of industrialists had some conception of the problems that have to be met by factory management.... General condemnation of employers is a favorite indoor sport of the uninformed intelligentsia who assume the role of lance- bearers for labor.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
“I am convinced that our American society will become more and more vulgarized and that it will be fragmentized into contending economic, racial and religious pressure groups lacking in unity and common will, unless we can arrest the disintegration of the family and of community solidarity.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
