True Grit - New Tucson Mural Celebrates Women of the West
Three muralists—Jessica Gonzales, Camila Ibarra, and Pen Macias—commissioned by Rio Nuevo, have unveiled a sweeping new mural in downtown Tucson. Spanning two walls of the Ceres building at the corner of North Courthouse Avenue and West Washington Street, near JoJo’s restaurant, the artwork is titled Women Weaving History. It stands as a vibrant testament to the generations of women who have shaped the cultural, civil, and historical landscape of Southern Arizona. The mural weaves together deep cultural anchors, from Tohono O’odham basket weavers to tamale making grandmother and granddaughter, traditional Zarape textiles and the sacred “Three Sisters”—corn, squash, and beans—cultivated for generations across the region. The artists created this piece with a clear hope: that every woman, mother, grandmother, aunt, and daughter might see a mirror of her own resilience within its frame.
