The Sandy Spring Museum enables the people to be connected to the cultural, political, and historical past of their area. It helps strengthen the cultural spirit of every society it encompasses as it explores the differences that have occurred and are occurring in order to find the common ground where people can be brought together. The Museum offers lectures, exhibits, music concerts, special events, art shows, and many other activities that are held in school programs or within the site?s landscaped gardens.

The Museum also helps in preserving the significant parts of its past so that the current and future generations can gain access to them. It acknowledges the concept of the present generations trying to learn from the past in order to discover new things for the future. The Sandy Spring Museum does all this through its collection that features letters, furniture, clothing, plows and harrows, business records, family histories, quilts, quills, cooking pots, and many more. Each object on the collection has a story to tell.

Through the Museum, the discovered communities one can find inside can now be reached by the world.
