Mission Statement

The purpose of the Staten Island Historical Society is to create opportunities for the public to explore the diversity of the American experience, especially that of Staten Island and its neighboring communities from the colonial period to the present.

 

To accomplish this the Society:

  • Operates and interprets Historic Richmond Town, the largest and most complete historic village in the City of New York
  • Collects and preserves the materials of everyday life including the artifacts, archives, and buildings that tell the story
  • Conducts and promotes research based on the museum's collections
  • Shares the collection and knowledge with the public through creative and engaging interpretative activities.
