Beautiful grounds! I…read morewent in June in the early morning and it got hot fast. It's a small park so very doable for a quick in and out of your area short on time or want to avoid the heat. It cost about $15 for an adult ticket. No food or drinks are allowed on the grounds. I thought I could walk around with my morning coffee it had to quickly drink it before entering the park.

Honestly, this place is absolutely gorgeous,I will fully admit that. The setup, lights, and overall…read moreaesthetic are really beautiful and definitely make for pretty pictures. But personally, I just don't see it being worth the price of $14 a person. One of the biggest things for me was that the actual area itself felt a lot smaller than I expected. On top of that, there were SO many people packed in that it was hard to even stop for a second and actually enjoy the ambiance without constantly being surrounded by crowds or trying to move around people. It kind of took away from the experience because instead of feeling immersive or relaxing, it mostly just felt overcrowded. What also made it hard for me to justify the price is that you can literally see the entire thing through the fence from the park next to it. Honestly, if I ever wanted to see it again, I'd probably just go sit at the park, save my money, and actually have more room to enjoy the view comfortably without feeling packed in shoulder to shoulder with everyone else. Overall, it's definitely very pretty and visually impressive, but for me personally, the experience didn't match the cost enough to make me want to return.

Hidden in downtown Phoenix, you will find The Rose Theater, where the production of Drunk…read moreShakespeare happens. In a small intimate theater, portrayed as The Library, one actor takes 5 shots of their drink of choice while still acting out the play Romeo and Juliet. It's a mix of comedy, improv, and ridiculousness that also allows for audience participation. The actors were amazing while being able to change the direction of the story. We had the convenience of ordering drinks and snacks right from our seats and having them delivered. We had a great time full of laughs! I highly recommend this hidden gem if you're looking to do something off the beaten path! Great for date nights, ladies night out, bachelor and bachelorette parties, you name it.

Whenever I visit the ASU Downtown Campus, I always find myself walking through the Civic Space…read morePark. This is a park with a lot of potential as there is a nice grassy area, some tables and chairs next to the US Post Office and ASU Student Center, a beautiful sculpture, and other places to hold an event and escape from the heat. At the same time, the Civic Space Park in recent years has been overrun with the homeless who find their own spaces on the east side of the park and sometimes elsewhere in the park. This has led to some safety concerns from ASU students and their families as many students have to walk across the park to get from the Sun Devil Fitness Complex or the Fusion on First upper-division residence hall across to the rest of the ASU Downtown Campus. There have also been a number of altercations over the last few years between multiple homeless and occasionally between a homeless person and a student. I have seen groups of students and even community members holding events in the park either in front of the Student Center entrance at the tables and chairs (gatherings by students or staff), on the grassy lawn area (community members playing soccer, frisbee, or having a picnic), or even on the south side of the walkway (though the lighting wasn't very good in the evening in that area). Again, it may be a challenge if some of the homeless community members try to engage at these events with the students, staff, and/or community members. Another challenge we learned is that it isn't the role of ASU Police or Phoenix Police to monitor the park. Rather there are park rangers who are responsible for doing so, which adds some complications as the rest of the ASU campus is supported by ASU Police and on occasion, by Phoenix Police. If you look at other reviews of Civic Space Park, it is difficult to find one that doesn't highlight the famous sculpture known as "Her Secret is Patience." In fact, I recall doing a photo shoot about 12 years ago under the sculpture at Civic Space Park. This sculpture is a public art sculpture commission that was designed for the city of Phoenix. The sculpture consists of painted, galvanized steel, polyester twine netting, and colored lights. Again, the space has a lot of potential though due to safety reasons, there is some work to be done to really prepare this park to meet its full potential.

The valley is very fortunate to have such a legit place for the EDM scene to thrive. It is, hands down, my favorite place in the valley to dance. All the elements are locked in here. Why, because the Walter group knows what's up. This Burning Man camp turned local Phx business, or other way around, I'm not sure, but nonetheless, does things right. The space itself is well organized-- the art gallery is when you first walk in, art cars & other art installations or artwork are spread throughout the warehouse. There are areas for hanging out and seating spread around and I've experienced many excellent viewpoints of the stage. The sound system is so nice with bumping bass for the amazing DJs that come through, and the lasers & lights make me happy. They have reasonable priced bar & food options, and they provide igloo coolers of cold water for free, available off the side of the bar. Which doesn't seem like a big deal but making sure people are drinking water is important when dancing all night. The venue cares about people who come there. There's a patio out back when you need to take a breather. Plenty of restrooms and they usually have AC & fans blasting when it's busy and/ or hot in there. It's a safe place to dance with respectful people who come here-- there to enjoy the art & vibes, have a great time dancing or enjoying the flow arts with fantastic DJs. I always meet cool people when I come here and I appreciate the staff

Plus I wanted to see the Italian Florentine Baroque, The Haukohl Collection. The parking was easy and ample. We were early so the parking lot was almost empty. Upon entering, I noticed they offered discounts for veterans for $20.00. I saved $10.00! They informed us that a couple of exhibits were closed for renovations. That didn't bother me since I was mainly here for the Florentine exhibit, which is where we started our self guided tour. The exhibits features more than 30 rare 17th and 18th century paintings and sculptures showcasing Florence's artistic legacy under the Medici Grand Dukes. The exhibits were beautiful. Each told their own story. Each painting were characterized by bold symbolism, vivid colors, and dramatic contrast of light and shadow. I read each plaque next to each painting. I highly recommend viewing this exhibit in person as this is the largest holding of Florentine Baroque art outside of Italy. Of course we toured the remaining exhibits that were open. It was $20.00 x 2 well spent. I love museums and I'd wish I would visit them more. Summer is the perfect time to visit them as it keeps you out of the summer heat!

Update: new visit / new rating change…read more I recently visited on Friday June 5 evening on their free[smart] First Friday to view the Colorwear exhibition. Upon my viewing, a plus-size punk poseur wearing all-black of a docent named "Teri" approached me and touched my hand that was holding my govt phone as I was videoing; it had on a green ring that let me know the recorder was on and looked like she was saying something about it*. I was hearing-impaired and hinted to her to write it down to be sure. She said she was sorry but refused/was too lazy to write it down, so I had to 'guess'. I went to the manager (Asian) and told him that "Teri" touched my hand uninvited. He embarrassingly apologized and handed me 2 free passes in the future. That's it. After that weekend, I contacted the museum via VP and got a "Kay" who took down my report. She contacted me back and left a message stating that "Teri" did nothing wrong because she didn't smack or use force. I contacted "Kay" back and reiterated that "Teri" had no right to touch me in any way or form and that it's called an assault because it was an uninvited touch. You're only permitted to touch a stranger if you had a question or wanted to compliment someone, NOT to dominate! I also tried to add that it's a violation of the ADA to refuse any assistance to visitors with disabilities. "Kay" was clueless and refused to let me continue the ADA part and even admitted that she never spoke to "Teri" but just referred the incident to the director assuming that the director talked with "Teri". She also interrupted me as I explained the violation of that touch. Unprofessional. I contacted the director "Rita" who stated she had no idea of such incidence happening associated with "Teri". She said that Teri is a volunteer and that there's nothing she could do about a "Teri". B.S. Both workers and volunteers are required by law to obey the same ADA! She also rushed me to end the conversation because she had to leave minutes ago or else her boss would bug her to go home already = unprofessional. Right (eye rolling). *I was at the museum on an assignment and had to re-film the part that "Teri" interrupted. The thing I figured was there was an African-American docent (very professional) who accompanied me by taking a photo of me by the display, something led from there that I was not aware of. Why didn't "Teri" approached HIM and ask. Why me?? A docent's job is to engage with visitors, not boss or follow around(!) They even get grumpy when visitors asked them to help take pictures of them standing by the displays. I am receiving more and more reviews of how abusive some docents are towards visitors with disabilities and also visitors with young children. Past & present. I was going to think that maybe some of those visitors did something wrong. I will be reporting this to the proper agencies that handle this type of misconduct by a business. People in Arizona often display pure hatred towards disabilities, calling it an 'inconvenience'. Shame on you, Phoenix Art Museum. If you are in the same class and must go to this museum, be sure to bring a bodyguard with you and don't be alone- ever. I suspect that "Teri" felt comfortable approaching me because I was (seemingly) a lone visitor. Good luck.
