Mission Statement

The mission of Tucson Meet Yourself is to research, document, interpret and present the living traditional arts and expressions of everyday life of the folk and ethnic communities of the multi-national Arizona-Sonora region.

Description

Tucson Meet Yourself celebrates the richness and diversity of Southern Arizona's folk and ethnic communities through music, dance, traditional arts, foodways, stories, crafts, occupational arts, cultural heritage, and other forms of expressions that reflect the folk life of Arizona-Sonora. Traditional arts express cultural identity and provide a tool to help understand community diversity. The result is a three day festival in the downtown area.
