GIVING TUESDAY VIRTUAL PROGRAM

“Healing Waters to the Arts: The Story of the Spa Little Theater”

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 2, 2025 AT 7:00PM

Join the Saratoga Springs Preservation Foundation for its annual Giving Tuesday Program, “Healing Waters to the Arts: The Story of the Spa Little Theater,” a virtual program by Carol Godette, local author, and Christopher Shiley, President of Saratoga Performing Arts Center (SPAC). Carol describes the history of the Spa Little Theater, located in the heart of the Saratoga Spa State Park, as being “a 1,000 piece puzzle – intricate, layered, and only fully understood once all the pieces are assembled.”  In 1935, the building opened as the auditorium for the Simon Baruch Research Institute. It later became a theater billed under various names. The program will cover  who graced the stage of this historic theater over the years as well as SPAC’s plans to restore and renew the space.

 

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.
