You can’t spell “party” without art, and what’s a party without the artistic food of Southern Arizona?

The Tucson Museum of Art is hosting the Crush Party from 6 – 9 p.m. on Friday, November 10.

The museum’s Plaza of the Pioneers park will be surrounded by some of Tucson’s best chefs, brewers, interactive art, and live music by Zona Libre.

Sometimes absorbing all of the art inside the museum sparks a little bit of creativity, too.

In order to serve your inner artist, take part in creating your own cut-paper art, original buttons, and live projection images.

One more special perk — the lobby will transform into the Red Door Lounge and include mini spa services.

Tickets are $50 per person, and $40 for Museum Members or designated drivers.

Crush Party Participating Restaurants

Beverage Partners

The recently renovated museum now has more than 20 galleries of Modern Art, Art of East Asia, Contemporary Art, Latin American Folk Art, and Art of the American West.

Tucson Museum of Art is located at 140 N. Main Ave. For more information, call (520) 624-2333 or visit tucsonmuseumofart.org.

More about Matt

At a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.

He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.

If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.

@Pueblovida is closing its original downtown taproom this fall, 12 years after opening, and moving next door to a larger space at 121 E. Broadway Blvd.

The new taproom will seat 100+ guests and feature 14 taps, a curated wine program and, for the first time, a restaurant. Chef Scott Girod of @Anello_pizzeria will open a new restaurant in the shared space, expected to follow the taproom’s late fall 2026 opening in early 2027.

“This taproom has always been more than four walls. It’s where we’ve celebrated milestones, introduced hundreds of new beers, watched friendships grow and built a community we’re incredibly grateful for. While we’re excited about what’s next, it’s impossible not to feel sentimental about saying goodbye to the place where it all happened.” — @Pueblovida Co-founder Linette Antillon
