The Tucson Museum of Art's Historic Block, once a part of the walled fortress that was the beginning of Tucson, brings the rich history of a bygone era together with the art of yesterday, today, and tomorrow. At the center of the block is a lush courtyard with a sculpture garden and waterfall known as the Plaza of the Pioneers, which serves as a hub of social and cultural activities. The Plaza is surrounded by five distinctive houses built between circa 1850 and 1907, and the more modern main museum building.
Regularly scheduled docent-led tours of the Historic Block are offered. Tours are free with admission to the Museum and meet in the lobby.
Public Tours: Regularly scheduled Docent-led tours are offered October - April and are free with Museum admission
