The Resiliency Through Art Program


This free program is based on research that shows using arts & crafts as a creative outlet is a great way to deal with the stress and challenges of military life. Participants can take advantage of our open studio hours to work on their own projects under the guidance of our Center experts. Come in anytime from Tuesday to Saturday, noon - 6 PM. No experience necessary! Open to all MWR patrons. Call 520-533-2015 for more information.

Pick and Paint Ceramics

The ceramic studio at the Arts & Crafts Center is open Tuesday through Saturday from 12 PM-6 PM. Pick and Paint Ceramics is available during center operating hours.

You pick your ceramic piece and paint it using in-house provided ceramic paint. We will fire your bisque, and you can pick it up the next week on Thursday from noon to 6pm.

There is a great variety of ceramics to choose from, including seasonal ceramics and licensed characters. You are welcome to bring a non-alcoholic drink with you and enjoy our time in the studio. 

Stop by the Arts Center or call the center at (520) 533-2015 for more information.
