Culture Corner at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport

The Culture Corner at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport is hosting a Learn & Go activity that will feature some of the Phoenix Zoo’s most notable animals from Arizona’s desert from 1-3 p.m. on Wednesday, July 30.

The deserts of Arizona are full of life, and Phoenix Sky Harbor is excited to partner with educators from the Phoenix Zoo to offer an up-close opportunity for passengers to learn about and interact with some of Arizona’s remarkable desert creatures. The current lineup includes a tiger salamander, an Arizona pocket mouse, a desert tortoise, domestic rabbits, and a red-tailed hawk. This list is subject to change.

Launched in January as part of Phoenix Sky Harbor’s 90th anniversary initiatives, the Culture Corner is aimed at supporting the airport’s ongoing effort to enhance the travel experience for passengers, a key focus for America’s Friendliest Airport®.

The Culture Corner provides a place where passengers of all ages can quickly learn, observe, and participate in monthly interactive activities such as live art demonstrations, crafts, displays, readings, and other hands-on experiences.
