Aside from a stacked musical lineup, Gem and Jam is known for its visual arts lineup and workshops, as well. And in case you didn’t know where they got their name, “the festival is held each year during the world-renowned Tucson Gem, Mineral and Fossil Showcase.” So expect to see lots and lots of beautiful crystals throughout the festival grounds! Gem and Jam is “the perfect pairing in music and art for gem enthusiasts and festival goers of all kinds.”
Now that the lineup has dropped, tickets are flying fast. Be sure to snag your festival and camping passes for Gem and Jam 2022, HERE!

September is National Suicide Prevention Month. Year-round, there needs to be discussions over suicidal thoughts and mental health conditions. However, September offers a dedicated time to come together and learn, or share strength about a heavy topic. The National Alliance on Mental Illness exists as a source containing information to raise awareness about suicidal thoughts and mental health crises. More people carrying the knowledge and tools will help more family members and loved ones down the line.
