Bisbee has declined in size and vigor from its glory days as a thriving silver and copper mining town, but the decrease in population has not robbed the vitality from this historic center. A haven to artists, retirees and history buffs, Bisbee astounds visitors with vibrantly colored rock faces and picturesque houses hugging the edges of cliffs. Its history can be discovered in its numerous museums, historic staircases and a mine tour that leads deep into one of the remaining caverns.

I was passing by this art gallery while browsing in many of the shops; several of the art items in the gallery were unusual and appealed to me. I went inside and looked around. I found a small painting that really resonated with me and after thinking about it a while, decided to purchase it. I came back later when the artist was there and she was so gracious and personable - a real memorable experience of my visit to Bisbee. The gallery manager was also very pleasant and informative. The other artist also had incredible drawings and mechanical art - these artists are both truly interesting and have a creative talent. I look forward to coming back to their gallery.

Belleza Fine Art Gallery has 26 artists from all over the world. We are also associated with the Renaissance House, a nonprofit treatment center for homeless women and their children. We sell their handmade extraordinary adirondack furniture for them and have a computer lab located in Belleza where they learn computer skills. We offer you fresh chocolate chip cookies all day, every day (for the last 15 years). But more importantly we strive to welcome and honor you, whether you make a purchase or not.
This gallery is a gem in Bisbee with many different artists showcased and beautifully displayed. And the gallery supports the local women's project.

An affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution, this small rural museum chronicles the history of the historic mining town of Bisbee through a rich display of artifacts, photographs and interesting displays.
We spent a little over an hour visiting the Bisbee Mining Museum. Great exhibits downstairs really brought the history of Bisbee to life. The huge bonus was the upstairs exhibits that were done in conjunction with the Smithsonian. Those were fantastic and took the overall museum to a 5 star ranking. Attendance is limited during the pandemic, so you are best off making advance reservations. We just stumbled on it and were fortunate to be able to access the exhibits during a quiet period. Very well done and friendly staff.

This lovely restored home is located high above the town. When it was built I'm sure the view was spectacular. The guide was very knowledgeable of the home and the Muheim family. She was able to "bring to life" the memories of the home.

Awesome museum. The museum has a collection of turn of the century clothes and various articles from when Bisbee was a normal town. Today's Bisbee is not what it was back in the day. Bisbee is more of an artsy town today but an awesome place to visit

I still had a lot of town to visit so didn't do a tasting. Appreciated Linda with overviews of the winery and how long she'd worked the tasting room. If I feel like wine , I'd definitely stop back in, next time when my wife joins me.
