Love coming here for community events!

There's multiple events held here monthly, including The Slide Society's line dance classes on Thursday nights at 6PM, which I really enjoy! In addition to this, there's also the barbershop and school that lives here, a healthy food prep restaurant I think, various community classes, and even the "Connections That Count" events that take place at 5 PM every first Wednesday that target, various themes and aim to build a better community (ABC) through fellowship and networking. There's really so many great things to say about the Dunbar and community events that occur here! Definitely worth checking out.

Currently it serves as a community center, a school, a barber academy, and it rents space out to artists and dancers and educators and even a publishing house! They have some great community programs and I was there for the Free Vegan Cooking class. The speaker, I believe her name is Rosie Kennedy, was great; equal parts knowledgeable and warm and engaging. She broke down a topic that can be daunting and demo'd a couple of recipes. Highly recommend signing up for any of her future programs if they (hopefully!!) have them. The space itself is not great for a cooking lecture because it's not a kitchen. The speaker did an amazing job, especially with all the constraints but she could have really benefitted from a more functional set-up. The room feels like its seen better days but they do have this super cool canvas wrapped around 2 of the walls that documents the history of the local African American community and the Dunbar. All in all I really appreciate having this resource in the community and look forward to their future programs!

It's a nice way to get connected with your local community.

This is our favorite pool to go to in the summer! I really like that it's covered so we don't have…read morethat Tucson sun glaring down on us. There is a section of the pool that's really shallow so it's easy for my toddler to walk around and get used to the water but it's also deep enough for my oldest to practice swimming. There is a lazy river, but it's restricted to 13 and older, which I don't mind because if it helps keep people safe then so be it. It's not a big deal. The lifeguards are very kind and very attentive and overall it's just a really great place to swim in the summer.

The lap lanes have extended farther into the pool area, closing off the deeper end of the pool, and reducing the available areas to only a small shallow section. Very disappointing. It's all good if that's how you want to run your operation, but you are misleading the public with these restrictions. Whoever is overseeing this should provide accurate information outside of the building and online.

It was super busy on a Saturday late afternoon (understandably). It was a little dirty but not terrible. I've worked with kids of all ages for years so I'm not like overly irked by kids behavior but wow they were wild, terrible language, breaking apart a tree and swinging a giant branch around, overall just playing rough with no regard to other kids trying to play. Maybe just not a good place to take a toddler or might just be the specific day we went. But don't think I'd be back for that reason.

Family and kids alike can swim altogether in this pool because of its depth variations. The layout of it is somewhat like a beach type thing ( i don't know how else to explain it..lol) where you start off with ankle depth then it goes on deeper as you go farther in. There are also a lot of lounge chairs and adirondack ones and also a shaded area where you can bring in your food and have a little picnic with your family. Vending machines are also in this shaded area so you can grab your snacks and drinks while you rest from all those pool fun. Lifeguards are very attentive and they surround the whole pool perimeter so that's a plus for me since a lot of kids tend to get rowdy when they're having fun.
