Home to the University of Arizona, Tucson boasts many significant educational and cultural accomplishments and programs. There is always fantastic programming to be enjoyed that is sponsored and brought to the people of Tucson by the university, programs that broaden the horizons of residents and visitors alike. Our daughter is a sophomore in high school and enjoyed touring the campus. Who knows? She may even decide to attend this interesting university.

 

In addition to the cultural programming provided by the University of Arizona, the city itself has a wide variety of festivals and outdoor events that celebrate the history and the diversity of Tucson and the American southwest. The Tucson Folk Festival showcases area musicians each year, and the Fourth Street Fair features arts and crafts from the locals. And this is just a few of the things that Tucson does every year to celebrate her residents and to shine the spotlight on one of the most beautiful cities in the United States! We were so fortunate to be a part of them.
