Tucson Highlights: Small Biz Saturday, Downtown Murals, and Community Resource Fair
Good morning, this is Tucson Local Pulse for Friday, November 28th, 2025.
We're heading into a busy weekend here in Tucson, and there's quite a bit happening around our community. If you're thinking about getting some holiday shopping done, this is a great time to support local businesses. Small Business Saturday is coming up this weekend, and it's a perfect opportunity to shop locally and help out the shops and entrepreneurs right here in our neighborhood.
In city news, there's been quite a bit of activity downtown. Four new murals have been added to celebrate Tucson's two hundred fiftieth anniversary as a city. Each one was created by a different local artist, so it's definitely worth taking a walk downtown to check them out and show some appreciation for our local creative community.
On the development front, city officials and the team behind Project Blue, which is a planned complex of data centers, held a community meeting this week. There's still a lot of public interest in this project, with many listeners wanting to know more details about how it will affect our water and electricity rates. The developers say the project will be water positive, but there's still quite a bit of discussion happening in the community about it.
Speaking of community support, the IMPACT Tucson Resource Fair is happening this Saturday at Palo Verde Magnet High School. They're offering free backpacks and school materials, so if you need supplies, that's a great opportunity to stop by.
Now, if you're planning outdoor activities today, keep an eye on the weather. We're heading into the weekend, and it's good to stay informed about what conditions might affect any plans you have.
On the public safety front, we've had some staffing challenges at the Tucson Fire Department. A staffing shortage actually forced ten fire vehicles out of service on Thanksgiving, which is something that affects our community's emergency response capabilities. It's a reminder of how important it is to keep our first responders resourced properly.
For anyone with pets at home, if you're dealing with Thanksgiving leftovers, just be careful about what you're sharing with your furry friends. Some human foods can be harmful to pets, so it's worth checking before you give them anything from the holiday table.
Looking ahead, we've got some interesting elections coming up here in Tucson. The city council race for Ward Six has been drawing attention, and voters will soon have a say in who represents their neighborhood.
That's what's happening around Tucson this Friday. Thank you so much for tuning in to Tucson Local Pulse, and please be sure to subscribe so you don't miss any of our updates. This has been a Quiet Please production. For more, check out quiet please dot ai.
