After I moved to Tucson in the 1990s, I built a page of links to Tucson information — and realized that other people might want to use it, too, so I put it on the Internet. That page has been popular enough that, when I had trouble finding a listing of artists in this town, I thought of building a similar page for art. (Tucson has a lot of art!) When I talked to some local artists about the Web, I found that many of them didn’t have any Internet presence. So I decided to build this site as a central place to list artists in all media and public art — and links to other Tucson art websites.

TucsonArt.info is here for everyone who’s in the arts, or interested in the arts. By building the site, I get to meet artists, track down public art and photograph it, and learn more about the art scene here. Please send me suggestions!

If you’re an artist, I’d be glad to make an entry for you here on this site. But note that this website is a volunteer-run project. Although you’re welcome to tell people about your listing and link to it (just copy the “Permalink” at the end of your listing), please don’t depend on this website or your listing being online forever. If you require a dedicated presence on the Internet, please get your own website instead; I’d be glad to link to yours. (By the way, 1&1 hosts this site; I’ve had good luck with them.)

Thanks. I hope you enjoy the site!
