We learned so much during the tour and have a deeper appreciation for history in Tucson. Thank you Elysa and Jennifer for accommodating my family!

I loved the art so I give two stars instead of one, but my rating is only so low because of the…read morestaff member who made my group feel unwelcome. It's important to note that our group was visibly made up of women of color, and we are all mostly hispanic and indigenous. For the first hour, we encountered staff members and security who just seemed like they were doing their jobs normally. No staring, no following, just observing and moving within their sections. But as we moved into the last section before the gift shop, we encountered a staff member who left a bad taste in our mouths. He was on his phone and ignoring the other (white) people in his section, but as soon as we walked in he stared really intensely at us and immediately stood up. He spent the next 45 minutes following us from room to room, making intense eye contact with us and keeping his arms crossed. If one of us moved out of his line of sight (I moved behind a pillar briefly) he moved quickly to see what we were doing. I understand he was keeping museum property safe, but we were following proper museum etiquette and nothing we were doing warranted that reaction. We kept our voices lowered, moved slowly, didn't get too close to items, etc. People of color are used to being treated with suspicion in many spaces, so I can assure you we know what it looks like when someone is keeping an eye on us. I thought it was in poor taste, though, to treat us, Mexican and indigenous women, like that, especially when we were in an art gallery viewing art by Latin American and indigenous artists. It gives the wrong impression and made us feel unwelcome when we were there to view and celebrate our own art and culture. I'm not writing this out of spite, but hopefully the museum can make sure their staff members do not continue to treat people of color differently than all people should be treated...especially when they display our art.

This museum was much bigger than I expected! Multiple floors of various exhibits spanning art and…read morehistory. There's an impressive collection of Meso American artifacts. There's also a wide range of art from various time period, plus contemporary + modern art. This museum's centennial was in 2025, and there are special pieces at the museum that were donated for the centennial. Don't forget to check out the outdoor sculpture garden! There's also a signpost outside the museum exit that people stick their admission stickers on, if you want to be part of the art. ;) I have some feedback though-- the gift shop does not have any magnets for the museum which was surprising. I also didn't see any postcards that were specific to the museum. They had generic Arizona and Tucson gifts, but the only museum-specific souvenirs my friend and I found were a few stickers.
