MADE IN TUCSON MARKET

The mission of the Made in Tucson Market is to support the Tucson artist community by creating a space for folks to meet local artists, learn about their processes, and have an opportunity to purchase their work. It is a celebration of the creative and authentic nature of Tucson makers. The Market will be inclusive, showcasing a variety of people who make their goods here in the Old Pueblo. This market is a lovely reflection of the amazing place we call home. Tucsonans understand the importance of community. I believe this shows up in T-town residents willing to take risks, work hard, support each other and create something genuine. Relationship to place is our tie that binds. I am so excited to be a part of this project that connects people, arts and Historic Fourth Avenue

Tucson Open Studio Tours

The Fall Open Studio Tours is one of the largest self-guided tours of artist studios and creative work spaces in the region. Taking place over two weekends in November, it showcases artists, musicians, and other creatives who have working studio spaces to open to the public. Presented by Arts Foundation for Tucson and Southern Arizona (formerly TPAC) for more than a decade, Open Studio Tours supports and promotes local artists who work and exhibit in Tucson and Pima County in order to strengthen our shared cultural community.

Among Arts Foundation’s organizational goals are to advance artistic expression, civic participation, and equitable economic growth of our diverse community, and to support the arts in the community beyond funding to meet a need identified by community members. Open Studio Tours help the Arts Foundation to fulfill these aspects of our goals by supporting increased professional and marketing capacity for artists, helping to increase the financial sustainability of working artists beyond our traditional grant-making, and increasing the participation of artists with the broader community.

Through Open Studio Tours, Pima County’s artists can invite visitors into their working studios, free-of-charge, to directly engage with working artists and to learn more about the artistic process.
