Every month a different school will be featured, with an exhibit showcasing a particular theme and medium, and if possible, a small performance by the featured school! 

A recycled art activity will be provided by Willow Bend for any interested visitors, as will snacks.

On the first Friday of each month, swing by for a tour of how we “walk the talk” with our building, BioBug, rainwater harvesting, and more!

On the first Friday of each month, meet on the corner of E. Butler Ave. and S. Babbitt Dr. for a behind-the-scenes green tour of recycling in our community!

Fire Ecology:

Are forest fires always a bad thing?

We'll look at the role of fire in our northern Arizona ponderosa pine ecosystem and how land managers use fire to maintain and create wildlife habitat.

The University of Arizona's Santa Rita Experimental Range is an outdoor laboratory for ecological and land management discoveries.  The facility has lodging to support research and educational uses.
