Founded in 1976, for almost four decades the Tucson Society of the Archaeological Institute of America has promoted the study of the ancient world with an active program of lectures and outreach.
Every year, we provide thousands of southern Arizonans with access to cutting-edge research on the peoples and places of antiquity and host community events which draw hundreds of attendees and garner local and national media coverage. For some of our projects—such as the Greek kiln and the Roman Snacktacle—we have received grants from the AIA, while others have been the result of a lot of hard work by the students and faculty who make up our governing board. We welcome interest from all members of the southern Arizona community, so become a member of the AIA today and join us for our next event!
