Experience El Nacimiento with TMA & #ThisisTucson
El Nacimiento, an elaborate 800-piece Nativity installation created by Maria Luisa Tena, fills an entire room in TMA’s Casa Cordova and has been on display during the holiday season since 1978. While Casa Cordova is temporarily closed due to COVID-19 safety precautions, we're bringing you two ways to virtually experience this Tucson treasure.
