Tucson Meet Yourself folklife festival
October 7 ~ 9, 2022
Tucson Meet Yourself 2022 was a wonderful experience!
The festival coordinators did an amazing job and it influenced the visitors and the vendors.
It was a time of meeting, greeting, exploring, learning, and eating.
We met great people, visitors and vendors alike.
There was definitely an atmosphere of community, and we look forward to meeting everyone outside of the festival and again next year.
