The museum acts  as an agent for collecting, documenting, preserving, displaying, interpreting, commemorating and loaning Civil War items and other artifacts and information that reflect the history and heritage of the region. It is not only a collecting and information center, but it is also a catalyst for community involvement, education, development and assistance for local cultural programs; it enriches ongoing events through historical perspective; and it serves as a site for cultural, social and civic activities.

The Columbia County Historical Museum is home to the Historical Sewing Society. Quarterly the Historical Sewing Society has living history presentations which are open to the public free of charge. During the Olustee Weekend, they joined with presenters from Michigan and Ohio to present "The Soldier's Aid Society" at the museum.
