Arizona’s Wild Territorial Days and Its Economic Development Through Statehood by Al Quihuis
January 13, 2027 @ 11:30 am – 12:30 pm

The driving forces behind Arizona’s wild frontier prior to Statehood were the 5C’s: copper, cattle, cotton, citrus, and climate. Local Award-Winning author Albert Monreal Quihuis takes us through the wild history of Arizona to discover if the 5 C’s remain as important today than they did in the past, and whether new 5 C’s have emerged. Museum for this free talk presented by Tempe History Society with generous support from Friendship Village.
