In addition to operating a House Museum, displaying artifacts and memorabilia and providing places for outdoor events, the Museum has several ancillary functions as follows: a. Archival and Preservation Functions - collecting and preserving photographs, documents, journals, ledgers, small historical artifacts and other ephemera relating to the Berlin area and making copies thereof using the latest affordable techniques. b. Historical Research - not only among its records, but in other records. c. Presentation of Cultural Events - small concerts, fairs, audio video presentations, tours and the like.
