The collection opens Monday and depicts historical events and places in the area, including "Kino Building San Xavier," "Wishing Shrine" and "400 Apaches Raid Tucson."
On Aug. 20, visitors to DeGrazia Gallery in the Sun also will be offered free birthday cake and ice cream to celebrate Tucson's 235th birthday.
The exhibition of "Tucson Story" runs through Jan. 31 and is open daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The gallery is at 6300 N. Swan Road.
