On behalf of the Tucson Historic Preservation Foundation, welcome to Tucson Modernism Week 2022. As our organization undergoes continuing post-pandemic redesign we are thrilled to present a highly focused program that creates intimate opportunities to explore our regions and community’s shared 20th-century heritage. We are re-building our modernism week planning team and if you are interested in applying connect with us.  

Tucson Modernism Week during the pandemic was made possible by the following sponsors. We continue our recognition of their support: Major Sponsors: Copenhagen, AZ Modern, Benjamin Supply, and the Mini Time Machine Museum of Miniatures. Additional support from Xppose Media, Hazelbaker & Ranek, Tim Hagyard/Long Realty, Michelle Hotchkiss Atomic Tucson/Re-Max Results Realty, The Sunshine Shop, and Prideaux Designs.  And finally, Tucson Modernism Week would not be possible without the support of a generous grant from Arizona Humanities and the National Endowment for the Humanities
