The next presentation at the Donora Historical Society is scheduled for Saturday, February 7 at 1 p.m., weather permitting, and is titled "Greetings from Donora." It will showcase vintage postcards of Donora and the stories behind them.
The presentations for March and April will not be held at the Smog Museum. We are encouraging all to attend the Civil War presentations instead, some of which will be presented by local historical societies from Donora, Monongahela and Monessen.
CALLING ALL VOLUNTEERS! If you have an interest in history, research, archiving, fundraising, working with students of all ages, working on some amazing projects, or working with people from all over the world, we may have an opportunity for you at the Donora Historical Society. We are always on the lookout for individuals who can help promote and advance the Society.
A full list of our accomplishments for 2014 and projects for 2015 can be found on our website by clicking on the "About Us" page.
