National Pi Day is meant to be an annual celebration of mathematical fun and equations, but that doesn’t mean local businesses can’t create their own spin on the holiday.
Besides, a slice of pie is a great way to honor the day.
Whether it’s a baked pie that’s crumbling right before you or a gooey slice of cheesy pizza that’s come straight out of the oven, the following spots in Tucson have you covered.
Beads of Courage at the Metal Arts Village is throwing their annual Pie Festival from noon to 3 p.m.
They’ll be serving up slices of home-baked pie, whole pies to take home, and a fun contest that crowns the king or queen of the Pie Festival. In addition, there will be live music by Zack Freitas from 1 – 3 p.m., and a free polymer clay bead making class (must pre-register), and a bead stringing activity.
Funds raised at the Pie Festival support the Barbara Eckhoff and Ethel Gribbon fund at Beads of Courage. The fund provides food to nurture patients, families and clinicians at children’s hospitals nationwide during our arts-in-medicine workshops and training sessions.
