At the forefront of New England's preservation
movement were women bringing a passion for
preservation to the communities where they lived.
Yet, somehow, these tenacious women's history is
often overlooked or lost from the record. This
lecture will trace women's participation in preservation
through the late 19th and early 20th centuries and
elevate their contributions in preserving New
England's history. Our speaker will be Elizabeth
Paliga, who is on the staff of Historic New England
as the Senior Preservation Services Manager for
Northern New England.
