About Us:

The Sandy Spring Museum was established in 1980 as the community was experiencing a rapid change in population and personality. A rural setting of farms, pastureland and, winding roads was becoming a bedroom community of four intersections and upscale commuters. As the museum has grown, it has become a focus for both long-time residents and newcomers—a link, like the spring itself, to a fascinating past. Ours is a history rich in social reform, progressive farming techniques, inventions, education, and cultural achievement. You are invited to share in the past by visiting the exhibits of the Sandy Spring Museum.

The Sandy Spring Museum is a not for profit private organization governed by a Board of Trustees, who are elected by the membership each September. The Officers—president, vice president, treasurer and secretary—are elected yearly by the board. Trustees meet on the third Tuesday and are responsible for establishing policies, new programs and the annual budget. The staff consists of an executive director and manager for administration, education, and weekends. Other positions are staffed by volunteers.
