Join us for another FREE Historic Athens History Hour, hosted by Denise Sunta. This month, our friends at the Athens Council on Aging will welcome us to their Center for Active Living!
For our October History Hour, we’ll focus on St. Mary’s Hospital, a cornerstone of healthcare in our community since its founding in 1906 by the Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart. We’ll explore the hospital’s journey from its humble beginnings in a small, converted house to becoming a state-of-the-art medical facility. Discover St. Mary’s pivotal role during significant historical events, the advancements in medical technology that revolutionized patient care, and the key figures whose dedication and vision shaped the hospital's legacy. Whether you're a history enthusiast or simply curious about local heritage, this event offers a unique opportunity to delve into the rich history of St. Mary’s and its enduring influence on present-day Athens.
All History Hours are catered by Rashe’s Cuisine, one of Historic Athens’ esteemed partners. Vegan and vegetarian options are available.
