The first week of school was magic ✨

We were so excited to see all of the smiling faces back on campus this past week. It was a blast to put on New Student Orientation, greet students at welcome tents, serve waffles, and so much more during the first five days of the semester.

We have a feeling that this will be one of the best school years yet - welcome back Pumas! by @pvcc_official

🎟️ WHAT’S INCLUDED? Free general admission for two people to a participating attraction. Passes are typically valid for seven days.

🏛️ WHERE CAN YOU GO? Dozens of museums and cultural attractions are available through participating libraries, including Desert Botanical Garden, the Heard Museum, Lowell Observatory, Phoenix Art Museum and more!
