✨ Step Into the World of Katrina Trask! ✨

Who was the woman behind one of America's most celebrated artist communities? 🎨🏛️

Join us on Thursday, November 5, for “The Universality of Katrina Trask,” a special evening of living history exploring the remarkable life and legacy of one of Saratoga Springs' most influential women!

Best remembered as the founder of Yaddo, Katrina Trask (1852–1922) was much more than a patron of the arts. A poet, philanthropist, and visionary, her passions and ambitions helped shape the cultural identity of Saratoga Springs.

As Yaddo celebrates 100 years of welcoming artists, discover the woman whose vision made it all possible!

🎭 Featuring Lezlie Dana as Katrina Trask and Rumara Jewett as her friend, this engaging staged conversation brings the beloved “Ladye of Yaddo” back to life, exploring her fascinating projects, personal beliefs, and hopes for Saratoga Springs.

This special evening also marks the final installment in a series of staged conversations celebrating Katrina Trask's extraordinary legacy.

📅 Thursday, November 5, 2026
🕖 7:00–8:30 PM
📍 Saratoga Springs History Museum

✨ Whether you're passionate about local history, the arts, or the fascinating people who shaped Saratoga Springs, this is an evening you won't want to miss!

We hope to see you there! ❤️
