The Tucson History Social
What is it?
The Tucson History Social is a monthly exploration of the fascinating history of Tucson. This casual event features a 30-45 minute talk on a person, place or event in Tucson's history that helped shape us. Participants are encouraged to share their stories as we socialize and learn. Drinks and snacks are sometimes available, depending on the venue!
