Our Mission

At the Tubac School Of Fine Art , we strive to change lives, nurture dreams, and assist the residents and visitors of Tubac and our neighboring communities discover their creative potential through fine art.

We offer fine art instruction in various media; moreover we offer a place for you to find your very own tribe of kindred spirits, in whatever style your artistic passion is expressed.

In 2015, master artist Lou Maestas (1939-2017) founded The Tubac Art Academy. Known as “the village where art and history meet,” Tubac, Arizona, was the perfect place for Lou to realize his dream. Lou had a vision to create a community program in which to share his wonderful gifts and experience alongside other artists to create a nucleus of fervor for fine art instruction. Lou had a core group of devoted students under his tutelage. Those students have gathered together to create the Tubac School of Fine Art. Our vision is a program that offers fine art education opportunities for locals and visitors alike. The Tubac School Of Fine Art  strives to keep that dream alive.
