Tales from the Time Machine: new exhibition at Littlehampton Museum

New Exhibition 22 July – 24 November 2025 Jump aboard the Time Machine, travel back through the ages and explore Littlehampton’s past through the Museum’s social history collections!

This fun exhibition encourages all members of the family to interact with the time machine – what date would you travel back to and why? What should the Museum collect in the future? Can you review a museum object and decide if it is relevant to Littlehampton’s history (or not!).

Shaped by the Museum volunteer's experiences of working on Project Time Machine and featuring their selection of objects, this exhibition includes many of the ‘star’ items and hidden histories unveiled during their research, alongside some objects found to be less relevant to Littlehampton's history! A selection of the research packs produced by volunteers for the project are also on display for visitors to browse and find out more about objects, people and places.

“This joyful exhibition celebrates the successful completion of this phase of Project Time Machine” said Councillor Freddie Tandy, Chair of Littlehampton Town Council’s Community Resources Committee, “and invites the community to engage with and enjoy the results”

As always, entry to the Museum is FREE.
