Saugatuck Woman’s Club

Location: Hoffman at Butler Street, Saugatuck
Date: 1904 / 1935

When the Saugatuck Woman’s Club was founded in 1904 as a place for intellectual, cultural, and artistic exchange between women in the community, Minnie Breuckman donated her residence for its home. An auditorium was added in 1935, designed by the great American architect Thomas Eddy Tallmadge, and reminiscent of the Colonial Williamsburg restoration he was engaged in for the Rockefeller family. It has been widely used as a gathering place for community concerts, plays, and meetings.
