Although the event scene takes a little dip this week, there's still plenty to do in Tucson.
Head to a couple spots for free movie screenings, bask in the sounds of "Cowboy Carter" while sipping a glass of wine, try to spot an elephant or two at Reid Park Zoo's first late-night event of the summer, dance to music in the park and pick up your next favorite find at a handful of artisan markets.
Of course, things can change quickly these days. Check for the latest info before heading out!
