New England Society for the Promotion of Manufactures and the Mechanic Arts
The New England Society for the Promotion of Manufactures and the Mechanical Arts was established in Boston on March 3, 1826, with a mission to promote American manufacturing through exhibitions, sales, and the presentation of awards. Its founding members included society president Levi Lincoln, Patrick T. Jackson, Jesse Putnam, John Dogget, and Henry A. S. Dearborn. The society held exhibitions, sales, and auctions in Boston, and awarded medals and financial stipends to domestic inventors. The group permanently dissolved on February 26, 1868.
