On the first Thursday of the month the Tucson Museum of Art and Historic Block offers extended hours and pay-what-you-wish admission from 5:00 pm until 8:00 pm. November’s First Thursday kicks off a Día de los Muertos community celebration happening on November 2 to November 12, that will include altar displays from Sophia Mayorga and Galeria Mitotera.
The evening will feature art and gallery activities where you can write a letter to someone you’ve lost or a I remember poem with Laila and create tissue paper flowers with Ami. And from 6:00 – 7:30 pm be part of a Death Cafe facilitated by Alice Vath and Cara Carrillo.
During First Thursdays TMA provides space for emerging and established food vendors throughout Arizona to offer pop-ups and encourage guests to support local businesses and foodie creatives. This month purchase Salvadorian food from Brujeria Pupuseria, enjoy live music from Las Azaleas, and a cash bar serving beer and wine.
First Thursday is presented by an anonymous donor.
