The Finnish Heritage Society is an organization dedicated to preserving and promoting Finnish culture and heritage in the United States. Founded in 1897, it serves as a resource for individuals interested in Finnish traditions, language, and history. The society organizes events, educational programs, and cultural activities that celebrate Finnish customs and foster community connections. In addition to cultural events, the society maintains a library and archives that house materials related to Finnish-American history. It also collaborates with other organizations to promote awareness of Finnish contributions to American society, including notable figures like Jean Sibelius and Akseli Gallen-Kallela.
