Chautauqua: Sisters of the Sage

On Wednesday, August 28, at 6:30pm, please join us at Dangberg Home Ranch Historic Park for a special Chautauqua presentation of three notable women in Nevada’s history.

Portraying these notable women are Cindy Southerland as Annie Hudnall Martin, the first woman in charge of the U.S. Assay Office in Carson City. Kim Harris as Lillian Virgin Finnegan, suffragist and originator of the Genoa Candy Dance Festival. DebiLynn Smith as Anna Norgard Harris, pioneer Nevada business owner.

Listen in as these three women interact with one another, sharing their struggles and accomplishments during their life’s journey.
