Preservation on the Rocks: Happy Hour
Join us for a preservation happy hour!
Whether you are an active preservationist, looking to get involved, or just want to grab a drink with us, this event is for you.
Welcome to the inaugural Preserve PHX quarterly happy hour: Preservation on the Rocks. With beer in hand, let’s dive into what historic preservation means to us and how we can better support preservation efforts in our city and communities. This is a casual happy hour with no formal agenda, so come as you are, ask questions, and let’s preserve Phoenix together.
We are always looking for ways to support local businesses in historic places which is why we are excited to host this gathering in AZ Wilderness’s new location in the historic Miracle Mile.
Date: June 20, 2025
Time: 5:00pm – 7:00pm
Location: AZ Wilderness Miracle Mile 1418 E McDowell Rd
This event is open to the public! No cover charge. All guests are responsible for their own tabs.

Historic Preservation Commission Meeting - Virtual Only
THIS MEETING IS VIRTUAL ONLY
The City of Phoenix’s Historic Preservation Commission meets once a month and is open to the public. We encourage the community to join us at the meeting to speak or submit comments on preservation issues.
This month, two properties are on the agenda to gather information and possibly initiate Historic Preservation (HP) Overlay:
Item 4: Hudson Farmstead (9680 S 59th Avenue)
Item 5: Barnes Dairy Farm (6159 W Dobbins Road)
Both properties are on a 30-day demolition hold as the owners request to demolish these eligible properties. Possible action can be taken by the commission to initiate HP Overlay Zoning. The community can request to speak in support of historic overlay zoning and oppose the demolition.
AZ Preservation Conference
The 2025 Preserve AZ Conference boasts two full days of programming geared to professionals, with continuing education credits when available, in the fields of historic preservation, archaeology, cultural resources management, architecture, and planning. The event is tailored for members of the public who are involved in historic preservation and archaeology through volunteer activities and non-profit or state and local board and commission membership. Programming is designed to attract elected leadership and staff of Arizona’s 22 Native American tribes, who have a special relationship to Arizona’s historic resources.
The two days of general programming are supplemented by tours, activities, and pre-conference workshops.
