by Carolyn Classen on Feb. 08, 2012, under Arts, Education, LifeFrom 2nd Saturdays Downtown website for February 11 – nine museums free unless otherwise noted. Just remember their respective hours of operation:
La Pilita Museum 420 S. Main Ave., 11am-2pm, also offering Barrio walking guide books
Presidio San Agustin del Tucson 133 W. Washington, 10am-4pm
Southern Arizona Transportation Museum 414 N. Toole, 10am-5pm

Children’s Museum Tucson 200 S. Sixth Ave., 10am-5pm
MOCA (Museum of Contemporary Art) 265 S. Church Ave., 12pm-5pm
Great way to see these art, history, science exhibits for free. Thanks to all the sponsors that made this happen for families and adults in Tucson, as I know there are normally fees at some of these museums (i.e. Science Downtown, Museum of Art, Children’s Museum Tucson, MOCA).
