Recently opened is the Thomas Cleveland Machinery Museum, located at the site of the mill. The Calder House Museum features permanent exhibits of textiles, farm and household tools and Native Americans. Educational programs with special displays are presented in the summer months. The Museum is open year-round by appointment for genealogical and historical research. Resources include property records, census records for Wayne and Pike Counties, and early local newspapers.
