Echoes of Industry, Promise of Preservation
On August 21st 1961, Articles of Incorporation were filed, establishing the Quincy Mine Hoist Association. You are invited to join us as we gather under the very hoist that prompted the association’s organization to celebrate more than 6 decades of dedicated efforts.
The Association emerged at a critical moment for industrial heritage conservation as well as a pivotal time for local economics as the collapse of one of the nation’s earliest copper mining districts became undeniable. The organization has since played a key role in safeguarding the physical and cultural legacy of one of the nation’s most important copper mining operations.
