ANYTHING GOES ON 2nd SATURDAYS

For the maximum energized downtown experience, join in each month’s city-sponsored 2nd Saturday when special events and street performers fill Congress and its adjoining streets with happy visitors – some of them looking exceptionally arty in painted faces and imaginative clothing.

While this daily resurrection of the Congress/Broadway corridor grows stronger, don’t forget about the loyal and longstanding restaurants that have stood resolutely through the hard times.

Traditional favorites such as the Cushing Street Bar & Restaurant, 198 W. Cushing St., have kept the faith and deserve to be rewarded. Jazz on Saturday evenings has been an honored tradition here for years, another way of mixing the old and the new --Tucson style.
