Miners Foundry Cultural Center

I’ve been coming to the Miners foundry for over 10 years. They are an amazing resource for the community , and you can always find a good view during the live shows. Great venue!

Such a wonderful historical old building in the heart of Nevada City and a registered California Historical Landmark. It hosts a variety of concerts, musicals, weddings, festivals and cultural events, that are definitely worth checking out. The building has great acoustics, an excellent sound system, an expansive hardwood dance floor and a large bar in an adjacent room. I came for a concert last weekend and had a fantastic time, with pretty much the entire audience dancing the whole time!! The air conditioning could use an upgrade, as it can get quite hot inside when the temperature outside is pushing 100°F. The Miners Foundry was built in 1855, as a foundry and blacksmith shop to repair and replace heavy mining machinery and equipment in the surrounding foothills. At the height of operation, it employed around 150 iron workers. There are lots of interesting artifacts and photograph on display throughout the building to learn about its place in California history.

Fascinating history on top of a rad music show. I liked seeing the organ and the giant components to the mill/engine. Staff was friendly & quick with the smiles & drinks. I look forward to bringing my family back to this town.

Fantastic concerts & kind staff. Best venue around for quality live music. Brothers Beyond Description played Allman Brothers music wonderfully. Been attending concerts here, since 1990. Full bar & knowledgeable bartenders.

So many fun and interesting events happen here! Besides just taking in the history of the building, I've seen awesome shows, concerts and fairs!
