On May 31, 2008, the new Montgomery Village Museum officially opened its doors with a special celebration.

The museum's establishment was driven by the dedication and vision of then Village Historian Marion Wild. Marion tirelessly sought a suitable venue to showcase the numerous artifacts she had collected over the years. Her efforts paid off when she secured Wesley Hall, a building with a rich history dating back to 1828 when it was originally constructed as a Methodist Church and later repurposed as the Senior Center.

With the support of numerous volunteers, Marion devoted countless hours to planning and relocating the museum from its previous home in Village Hall. Their hard work and commitment have created a space where the village's history can be preserved and appreciated by all.
