2022 Special Topics Workshop - Phoenix
Though it was the last territory in the continental U.S. to gain its statehood, Arizona is home to many national treasures. The long history from before statehood can best be captured at Heard Museum , an internationally recognized collection dedicated to the advancement of American Indian art in all forms, including dance, pottery and paintings. The Heard Museum also features an exhibit called “Away from Home: American Indian Boarding School Stories,” which captures the often-untold stories of the American Indians and their experiences during the assimilation period, beginning in the 1870s.
The Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix is home to more than 50,000 species of cactuses, trees and flowers from throughout the region and deserts around the world, all on display throughout its 140 acres (55 of which are cultivated).
This beautiful landscape is also the backdrop for the garden’s seasonal events. The garden also features art installations intertwined with the flora each year.
Phoenix’s stunning Sonoran Desert scenery sets it apart from every major city in the United States.
Some Phoenix spa treatments are as unique as the landscape they’re in and use botanicals and minerals from local sources.
Whether you're in search of Southwestern or contemporary art, the world's largest collection of musical instruments, interactive science exhibits or really anything else, you can discover it all at one of Greater Phoenix's renowned museums.
Wine. Dine. Unwind. Retail therapy and aromatherapy are both on the agenda during this circuit of Greater Phoenix’s plentiful people pleasures.
Experience the region's American Indian culture at museums, ancient ruins and rock carvings
