The Pancakes & Booze Art Show is rolling into Tucson — a one-night-only pop-up art extravaganza featuring a curated display of more than 75 local artists on Saturday, October 21.

This event is from 8 p.m. – midnight and will be set up at the Whistle Stop Depot, 127 W. Fifth St., offering a fresh take on the traditional art show. Oh, and there’s totally going to be all-you-can-eat pancakes with a purchase of a ticket.

Aside from the unlimited amounts of pancakes (as many as you can handle, at least), the Whistle Stop Depot’s walls will be adorned with canvases from floor to ceiling. There are also going to be live body painting sessions, DJs, live music, and a sense of artistic inspiration.

If you’re a local artist, they’re still accepting submissions to have your work displayed.

Early bird tickets are available for $10 until Saturday, October 14. After that, tickets can be purchased for $15 during the week leading up to the show, and for $20 on the day of the event.

As mentioned earlier, your admission grants you access to indulge in a sticky all-you-can-eat pancake feast. Also, the event is for those 21 years and older due to the “booze” that’ll be sold.

Pioneered by filmmaker Tom Kirlin in 2009, the Pancakes & Booze Art Show has become a global phenomenon, popping up over 500 times in more than 40 cities worldwide.

The Whistle Stop Depot is located at 127 W. Fifth St. For more information and to buy tickets, visit pancakesandbooze.com.
