Enjoy Music in the Desert at Night!

On November 15 from 6:00 to 10:00 pm, take the opportunity to see the gardens and animals at night, when the animals are most active. You can also experience live musical performances under the stars by Domingo Degrazia and Beth Daunis, with special guest Juan Barreda. Their original compositions weave flamenco, pop, gypsy-folk, classical and Latin elements into a unique Southwestern sound. Plus members who attend the night's event will receive a special 20% Gift Shop discount for this one night only just in time for holiday shopping! Learn more

Become Part of This Conservation Project

 If you're interested in conservation, the Museum needs YOU to become a citizen scientist! Get involved and help scientists study pollination activity in Tucson by counting Barrel Cactus seeds. The data received will help identify Pollinator Hotspots - areas of particularly high pollinator density across the Sonoran Desert landscape. These plants are loaded with fruit right now, making it optimal seed counting time! Learn More |
