Posted By on Tue, Nov 6, 2018 at 1:00 AM

Mama’s Wranglers, Jackson Family Band and Cloggers. These home-grown professional recording artists are providing Oro Valley with entertainment on Tuesday, Nov. 6. They have been named "young entertainers of the year" three times, so they will not disappoint. They perform a variety of western classics that will bring you way back. Not only can they sing but they will also be clogging, talk about multitasking. 13005 N Oracle Road. 6 p.m. $15 per person. Details Here.

Butterfly Magic. The butterflies are back! Whether you're visiting Tucson for the first time this weekend or whether you've been in the Tucson Botanical Gardens' Cox Butterfly and Orchid Pavilion dozens of times already, there's nothing quite so pleasant. Step into the enclosed garden full of tropical plants, blooming orchids and tons and tons of rare butterflies and hang out with them up close and personal as they enjoy fruit, flit from branch to branch and sometimes even land on you. Just watch out for hitchhikers—make sure any butterflies that landed on you aren't still there when you leave. Up through May 2019. 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily. Tucson Botanical Gardens, 2150 N. Alvernon Way. $15 adults, $13 seniors/students/military, $8 kids 4 to 17, free for members and kids 3 and under. Details Here.

Second Annual Pillow Project. Until Nov. 16 Oro Valley Police Department and Emerge! is collecting pillows for domestic violence survivors. You can help survivors by providing them with new standard pillows until Nov. 16. They can be dropped off at the listed locations:  Monday-Friday 8 a.m. -5 p.m. at OV Police Dept. 11000 N. La Canada Dr. or Golder Ranch Fire Station #380 1175 W. Magee or Golder Ranch Fire Station #377 355 E. Linda Vista. Details Here.
