Tucson is the second largest city of Arizona and while it offers nearly as much to see and do as its larger cousin, Tucson is the more typically Arizonian of the two. Downtown Tucson is easy to get around with number of good cafés, bars and shops along 4th Avenue. The month of February is a busy time in Tucson with two major events, the Tucson Gem & Mineral Show & Fiesta de los Vaqueros, being held every year. Few of the major city attractions include the Tucson Museum of Art, the outstanding Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum & the Pima Air & Space Museum. Tucson abounds in opportunities for outdoor recreations like golfing, hiking, camping, biking, etc. Gamblers may want to hit the Desert Diamonds Casino for a little poker, Blackjack, Kino, slots and more.

This museum has a modern section along with renovated historic homes as part of its exhibit galleries. Located in the historic area of the city there is much to see and do here. Having an impressive array of art collections, Arizona's Tucson Museum of Art offers courtyards and lush outdoor spaces in its plazas. In 1975 the Tucson Art Center moved to its present location and became the caretaker of five historic properties -- La Casa Cordova, Romero House, Edward Nye Fish House, Stevens/Duffield House and the J. Knox Corbett House that collectively became Tucson Museum of Art. It now encompasses an entire city block in historic downtown, and features original and traveling exhibitions focusing on Art of Latin America, American West, Modern and Contemporary Art and Asian Art as well as tours, education programs, studio art classes, and Museum Store to delight visitors.
Tucson Museum Art
This Theater was built in 1929 to serve as vaudeville and a move house. The Fox was originally to be called "The Tower" but was changed to the Fox prior to opening. Opening night on April 11, 1930 turned out to be the biggest party in Tucson. With Congress Street closed and waxed for dancing, four live bands, a live radio broadcast and free trolley rides made it a night to remember. Over time and changes in the downtown scenario, the theater closed in 1974. It was in January 2006 that the theater re-opened after remaining closed for 32 years. This was the outcome of the dedicated efforts of a group of citizens that wanted to have this beautiful piece of Southwestern Art Deco construction back in the forefront of the art world.
