The village of Tubac, located about 45 miles south of Tucson off Interstate 19, was the first European settlement in what is now the State of Arizona. It has become a haven for artists and a favorite destination for visitors to Southern Arizona, offering more than 80 shops, restaurants and galleries. The Tubac Center of the Arts features ongoing exhibitions of Southwestern art. Every year, more than 200 artists display and sell works on the streets during the Annual Tubac Festival of the Arts in early spring. Admission is free. Parking is USD4, with free horse-drawn trolleys taking you to and from the village.
