Join us at the Watershed Management Group Living Lab for a multidisciplinary concert experience exploring the sounds of our watershed. Before the concert, take some time to enjoy rainwater refreshments and tour WMG's demonstration site for hydro-local living and watershed resilience. The campus is supported by rainwater for all indoor and outdoor needs almost year-round, and includes extensive rain gardens, a native food forest, a 10,000 gallon underground cistern, art exhibits about Tucson’s history of flowing creeks and rivers, a kids’ play area, and much more.
This unique event is supported by the 2024-2025 AIR Annual Resilience Theme Award.
