First Friday | May 1 | 6 - 8:00 PM

AZ Culture Connection at the Historic Ice House Downtown

All ages welcome!

Come create Shadow Boxes inspired by artist Joseph Cornell, and by the Book, Fuzz - what antics can you design for some shadow box animals? This is only one part of the From Wishcycling to Wonder Night at AZ Culture Connections!

Participants can display their art work at the Ice House throughout the month and pick it up at the Big Read Wrap party in May!

Free registration is required, all materials and snacks will be provided!

This season's Flagstaff Big Read is asking us all to take a walk on the wild side with Mary Roach’s book: FUZZ: When Nature Breaks the Law! It is a collection of stories about the many many times that non-human animals and human animals have had to learn how to get along - or are still learning.

You can pick up a free copy of Roach’s book at the Flagstaff Public Library, Cline Library, The Riles Building at NAU, the Murdoch Center, or Culture Connect AZ! Join one of our programs between January and May 2026 to engage with your community while learning more about animals and how we live with them all around the world.

Go to Flagstaff Big Read Coalition to learn more about our free community events, check-out reading lists and at-home activities, or learn more about Fuzz!
