Housing Crisis – Housing First Housing First is the City of Tucson’s approach to helping those who are experiencing homelessness which is managed by the Housing & Community Development Department. Housing First is an evidence-based approach to ending homelessness that centers on quickly moving people experiencing homelessness into independent and permanent housing, and then providing additional supports and services as needed. Desert Botanical Garden Since 1939, Desert Botanical Garden has served as a global leader in the research and conservation of desert plants and their habitats. The work being done is leading to the discoveries of new plant species, conservation of threatened and endangered species, and identifying emerging threats such as climate change to the desert habitats throughout the world. It’s also a beautiful place to stroll around and enjoy. Desert Drone Experimental and Ambient music are genres of music that have been around for more than half a century, with pioneers like Brian Eno.

We meet Zach Hansen the founder and organizer of the DIY concert series Desert Drone.
