Previous Exhibitions at East Grinstead Museum

We have an exciting exhibition programme at the Museum, and a new exhibition is mounted every 3-4 months.  

Girlguiding East Grinstead 1910-2010

Guiding in East Grinstead has been established since 1917. Records and minute books have survived intact since this date and give us a glimpse of how Guiding has changed over the last 100 years.

We hope that through this exhibition you discovered the phenomenon that is Girlguiding.

Booklets to accompany the exhibition can be purchased from the museum at a cost of £2 each. 

Sackville College 400 Years of Caring

Sackville College is a magnificent Jacobean building which enhances the mainly medieval High Street in East Grinstead. However, its true value to the town lies not within its architecture but in the care it has taken of its poorer citizens throughout the four centuries of its existence.

This exhibition followed the college's patrons and wardens who have cared for the building and its residents these past 400 years.

Booklets to accompany the exhibition can be purchased from the museum at a cost of £2 each.  

Three Cheers for the 3 Rs

On 31st May 1869 the Rev C.W. P Crawfurd, chief subscriber to the National School called for three cheers for three Rs after presenting attendance certificates.

In this exhibition looked at the history of East Grinstead's National School and celebrated its achievements through to its present day desendents, Sackville, Imberhorne, The Meads and Blackwell.

Booklets to accompany the exhibition can be purchased from the museum at a cost of £2 each.
