ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥

We live in a world where " They're white and lacy, and honestly, wouldn't look half bad with a wedding dress.Ìý

Because that's where we are. A mask for every occasion.Ìý

That's why when reopened in May, asking walkers to wear face masks, a local screen printing shop got involved.Ìý

Hiking Tumamoc? Definitely an occasion.Ìý

To correspond with Tumamoc's reopening, designed breathable, Tumamoc-themed masks. in Phoenix manufactured them, and some of the proceeds supported the Desert Laboratory on Tumamoc Hill. They sold out pretty fast.Ìý 

"Part of our mission at CREAM is sustainability in the community, which means partnering with nonprofits and artists to help them with their projects," says Patrick Foley, who co-owns CREAM with Marissa Johnson.Ìý

Assuming everything happens on schedule, CREAM should release the next run of masks next week, featuring some of your favorite desert critters.Ìý

A few weeks ago, Pima County began requiring people to wear a face covering when in public and if unable to properly physical distance 

So whether your occasion is a walk up Tumamoc or a trip to the grocery store, you might as well wear a mask that reminds you of something you love.Ìý

And we love ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ so here are four local businesses and organizations selling masks with ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ themes.

Note: As always, check with individual businesses regarding store operations and stock.
