March Virtual Program

“Sarah Smiley: From Mohonk to Saratoga”

Thursday, March 27 at 7PM

Join the Saratoga Springs Preservation Foundation as we celebrate Women’s History Month with the virtual program, “Sarah Smiley: From Mohonk to Saratoga,” featuring Louisa Finn, fourth-generation Smiley family member and Mohonk Consultations Board Chair, along with Nell Boucher, archivist at Mohonk Mountain House.

This program will explore the extraordinary life and legacy of Sarah Smiley—from her family’s founding of Mohonk Mountain House to her profound contributions to education, social justice, and religious discourse—while also highlighting her architectural connection to Saratoga Springs.

This program will be hosted via Zoom for a suggested donation of $10 or more. All registrants will receive a Zoom link in advance, as well as access to the program recording.
