find a community space

Welcome to our Third Space Database!

Tucson Love letter was built to help the community grow. We know how hard it can be to make friends as adults - and we want to make that experience easier! We created this database filled with clubs, groups and community events that are specifically designed for people to meet one another.

Know of a third space we should add to the list? Submit it here!

We try to keep this database as up to date as possible, but details are subject to change. Visit the event websites for more information :)
