The Chestnut Hill Conservancy’s 2025 Spring Gala will be held in Chestnut Hill at a historic house built in the early 19th century and once part of the Owen Sheridan farm. In 1904, architect Mantle Fielding incorporated the original mansion into the Boxly estate and converted it into stables and servant quarters. Then, in 1950, architect Sydney E. Martin restored it as a single-family residence.
This year, we are thrilled to honor Susan and Bob Peck for their outstanding contributions to sustaining and celebrating our community. Susan’s longtime leadership with the Conservancy and Morris Arboretum, combined with Bob’s work as a naturalist, historian, and writer, has helped preserve and share our area’s rich heritage.
We hope you can join us! Benefactor and Patron tickets are now available for purchase.
