Tucson Arts
Tucson's ARTmarket
Tucson’s multitude of art galleries and historic art dedications have long placed Tucson on Arizona’s art and culture radar. This weekend, art aficionados will have the opportunity to peruse unique exhibits in search of one-of-a kind art by local artisans at the ARTmarket.
Al Fresco Entertainment in Tucson
Growing up in the San Francisco Bay Area, I always had easy access to arts, culture and entertainment. One of my fondest memories as a child was attending outdoor summer concerts at a vineyard in the Livermore Valley. There is just something about a cool, early evening breeze coupled with fine wine (back then it was lemonade), that makes everything right. Add in a little music and there isn’t much that could make it any better.
Tucson Museum Hopping
As the weather heats up into the triple digits, the desire for outdoor adventures transitions into a need for air-conditioned activities. In and around Tucson, many museums provide entertainment and education sans the sweltering hot temps.
Crush Wine, Food and Art Festival
If March slipped by without any vacation, keep in mind that a block party of warm evenings, good company, live music, exquisite food, and a savory glass of wine is the “adult’s spring break” to plan for in the month of April. Join the Tucson’s Museum of Art as it hosts its third annual “Crush Wine, Food and Art Festival” April 9 and 10, 2010, in the heart of downtown Tucson.
Bouquet to Art Fundraiser
The weekend is blooming with floral festivities as the University of Arizona Museum of Art features “Bouquets to Art: A Celebration of Floral Artistry.” These collections of dynamic floral arrangements dramatize the museum's renowned artwork.
