Soon, the weather will be toasty in the Sonoran Desert, so why not propose a toast to it?
For the well being of all species, the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum is throwing a “Party for the Planet” from 6:30 – 9:30 p.m. on Saturday, May 11.
It’s a great opportunity to soak in the beauty of the desert while sipping on some of the best local and regional beer available.
The fun doesn’t stop there, though. You can also taste sweet and savory snacks, admire the stars, dance the night away, visit with the animals, stop by the Hello Gorgeous Photo Booth, and more.
Party on, Tucsonans.
General Admission tickets are $30 per person and include 15 beer tastings, snacks, admission to the Stingray Touch exhibit, and a commemorative sticker.
You can also buy VIP and Designated Driver tickets, as well, so choose wisely.

This year’s “Party for the Planet” will be celebrating Endangered Species Day.
The day was created to really get to know about the importance of protecting endangered species — much like the Mexican gray wolves — and other actions you can do to help protect them.

More about MattAt 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.
