  San Agustin Mission Garden Native American Fair - Saturday 11/08/2025

  Trip Cost $12.00

  Mark your calendars! Mission Garden is holding their Native American Arts Fair on Saturday, November 8, 2025. This annual event is a celebration of cultural sharing, traditional arts, and community gathering.
  

  The fair will feature talented Indigenous artists from across the region showcasing jewelry, pottery, weaving, and other traditional arts. Visitors can also enjoy delicious offerings from local food vendors, highlighting flavors rooted in local foodways.

  More details will be shared with you soon but for now, we hope you’ll save the date and join us for this vibrant celebration of heritage, creativity, and community at Mission Garden.

  San Agustin Mission Garden's mission is to preserve, honor, restore, recreate and promote the cultural heritage and historic landscapes of Tucson's birthplace at the foot of Sentinel Peak. Mission Gardens has 11 different gardens representing native plants, early agriculture, Hohokan and O'odham agriculture, a Spanish Colonial Orchard, Mexican, Chinese, African American, Anglo and Yaqui gardens.

  Please be sure to wear flat shoes and appropriate clothing for the weather. Please wear your GVR Photography Club badge, if you have one.

  For those carpooling, $5.00 is an appropriate contribution to the driver for gas and parking. 

  Meet at the Photography Club upper-level parking lot at 8:00 AM for carpooling, departure at 8:15. Contact the Field Trip Guide Patty Ferguson at 520-647-1264 or email at piferguson13@gmail.com with any questions.

  Streetcar Art Tour - Monday 11/17/2025

  Trip Cost $25

  Our guide will be Alinda Hakanson, who will tell us about the artist, title, and how each work of art fits into the theme chosen for all the public art for this project, and some of the history of Tucson.

  During your this trip, please wear a hat, sunscreen, and water to drink. There will be some walking (about four blocks at the 2nd stop).

  We will be stopping at noon for a no-host lunch at Gentle Ben's on University near the campus. Click here for the menu.

  For those carpooling, $5 is an appropriate contribution to the driver.

  Meet at the upper-level parking lot next to the bridge to the Photography Club at 8:50 a.m. for departure at 9:15 a.m.  Because we are at the mercy of the streetcar and the tempo of the group, we may not get back to the parked cars until about 2:30-3:00 p.m. 

  Please wear your Photography Club/Camera Club name tag, if you have one.

  GVR requires every person participating in Photography Club field trips must sign a one-time Waiver of Liability for Club Excursions prior to departure absolving GVR of any liability.  You may sign the waiver at the Photography Club or the morning of the trip, if you haven't already done so.
