Glendale's Deer Valley Rock Art Center will challenge what you know about art. In more than one way, this attraction will “rock” your world, as the center houses several unique examples of rock paintings and petroglyphs. Some of these impressive rock sculptures are displayed outside the venue, and can be seen in all their glory along the adjacent walking path. As you move along this picturesque trail, you will also be treated to the sight of a beautiful garden and an impressive amphitheater.

Give the kids a chance to see and experience all the fun and hard work that is part of life on the farm when you plan to bring them to the Annual Family Farm Day in Glendale. The Tolmachoff farm holds this annual festival in June and it is an excellent opportunity to visit the farm with the whole family. There are plenty of educational and fun things to see and experience, a couple of the most popular being the train rides and photo ops with a pony.

A visit to Glendale's Sahuaro Ranch will allow you to experience not only a vital part of the area's history, but also to understand the vital role of farming and agriculture to the economic development of the area. This ranch is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and offers visitors a chance to visit a rustic farmhouse complete with vintage furnishing and decorations. You will also marvel at exhibits and attractions like the collection of vintage and antique farm equipment that was used to bring in the various crops.
