Memories of Steel: The Last Cast – November 18, 1995.

December 15, 2015 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

The Steelworkers’ Archives is sponsoring Memories of Steel: the Last Cast, a 20th anniversary commemoration of the last cast of iron in Bethlehem. Bethlehem’s hot end closed on November 18, 1995 with the last cast from the C furnace, ending iron and steel making at the plant. While the majority of shops stayed open at the Bethlehem mill, the closing of the last blast furnace was a profound event for steelworkers, the Bethlehem Steel Corporation, and the entire community. This anniversary will be remembered with a panel discussion of steelworkers present on that day and actual video footage of the last cast. In addition, there will be an exhibit of photographs and memorabilia.

Free and open to the public.  Free parking available at ArtsQuest lots.
