POSTPONED
The Romani Family Circus is POSTPONED
Will the Covid 19 impacts ever stop coming? New information suggests that masking during crowded outdoor events is wise to prevent spread of the Delta variant and is the new norm at Valley of the Moon . We couldn't work out how to film an old time Romani circus while everyone sports masks. Valley of the Moon and Indie Film International, LLC made a joint decision to postpone the event until we can do so safely. Those who have bought tickets will get refunds and half off when we reschedule the event.

Free Family Outings
Quarantine measures have separated children from beloved Grandparents and others. Valley of the Moon has created SAFE PLACE, where COVID-vulnerable folk can reunite with their families under less risky conditions when the time is right. We also provide youth and volunteer training, have hired youth project assistants and have made facility improvements to reduce risk of spreading COVID19. Program is staffed by Infectious Disease Preventionist Erin Archer. SAFE PLACE is free to participants! Interested? Email wizard@tucsonvalleyofthemoon.com with Safe Place in the subject line and let us know about who in your family would like a reunion. Funded by a generous grant from Union Pacific Foundation.

What is Mischief Night?
In some areas, October 30th is when ordinarily well-behaved folks set out to stir up a little trouble. The most famous Mischief Night was on October 30, 1938 when a little radio show announced Martians had landed in New Jersey and were attacking; broadcasting an H.G. Welles science fiction story “War of the Worlds” as if it was a newscast. The panic that ensued caused some real problems so we don’t suggest that sort of prank. Instead, dress up to express your mischievous side in a fun, positive way on a very special night of our Haunted Ruins Show at Valley of the Moon!
