First Tuesday and Other Events

First Tuesday Events

First Tuesday Events | Event Speaker in front of crowd.


On the first Tuesday of most months, join us for a fun and entertaining evening with a well-known western artist! Artists and artisans typically share insights into their work, their history and successes. Artists/artisans range from western art painters and sculptors to authors, silversmiths and leather crafters. The evening includes dinner, drink, presentation, coffee/tea and light deserts. The event runs from 5:30 – 8:00 pm at the Mountain Oyster Club.

Can’t come for dinner but would enjoy the presentation? Come from 7:00 — 8:00 p.m. which includes presentation, coffee/tea, and light desserts. FWA periodically has special events, such as guest speakers or bus trips to locations in southern Arizona to see art exhibits.
