Arizona Arts brings together the highly regarded academic programs of the College of Fine Arts with world-renowned offerings from Arizona Arts Live, the Center for Creative Photography and the University of Arizona Museum of Art. This new division aims to bring the transformative power of the arts to all.
We believe the arts hold the power to expand human potential by encouraging us to engage different perspectives and cultures. By highlighting Tucson and the University of Arizona as a premier arts destination, we seek to expose the world to the boundless talent and creative energy fueling Southern Arizona. Only through collaboration among our various arts organizations and including all stakeholders can we fully realize our creative potential. From this effort comes a more connected community and, ultimately, a more meaningful human experience for all.
We would appreciate your support of these Fine Arts priorities. Every gift matters!
