Tucson's "O" ~ the downtown doughnut

One of the most fun (and interactive!) pieces of public art in downtown Tucson is the "O" sculpture across from the Tucson Museum of Art. It's solar powered and looks kind of plain during the day - just a white wheel - but at night the changing color show is really fun. Here's a YouTube video of "O" at night~ click here.

  1. Cool, Diane! New since I've been downtown...the video was very neat, neon meets Krispy Kreme!! The note on the video said something about finding the bolt that makes it change colors...have you been there at night to check it out?!

  2. Yes, a visitor can change the sequence of colors when you find the "secret switch."
