Amazing Scavenger Hunt Adventure-Phoenix

Spring Scavenger Hunt Adventure

It is not just a SHOW, it is an EXPERIENCE!


For almost a decade, we have been the #1 show for brunch in Texas (some say the U.S except the Miami show is crazier). Loud, proud, sometime lewd, but always over the top fun. For those who need a small break from their spouse, boyfriend, girlfriend, children, boss, or the every day monotony of life, there is no other place. Each show is different. So as we say here in Texas, "LIVE LIFE LIKE SOMEBODY LEFT THE GATE OPEN!"


Expertise in bachelorette parties, divorce celebrations, just turned 50, and girls just want to have fun parties or anything else that requires no picture taking.


Seating starts at 10:00 am. Seating is first-come first-serve. We do not sit incomplete parties. Seating is determined by party size and tables available when your party arrives.


No outside food, drink or cakes are allowed in the establishment.


Guest must present a physical form of ID, drivers license, or passport (All guest must be 21+) and valid mobile ticket before entrance is permitted.


Paramour is a non-cash establishment.


Show is for a mature audience.

What is an Ekphrastic Poem? An ekphrastic poem is based on a piece of art. These poems take an existing piece of visual art, and use written words to describe and expand on the theme of that work of art. Many of these poems explore hidden meanings or an underlying story.

“Chicano/a/x Prints and Graphics: Selections from the Hispanic Research Center’s Collection, 1980–2010” showcases a partnership between ASU’s Hispanic Research Center (HRC) and ASU Art Museum and brings together works from the 1980s into the 2010s drawn from the HRC’s dynamic collection. Featuring over 30 artists who each offer a kaleidoscope of perspectives on the Mexican American experience, this year-long exhibition pays homage to the ideals of the Chicano Movement of the 1960s and 70s and expands upon them through the widely disseminated medium of prints. Presented in two parts, this unique exhibition underscores how Chicano/a/x artists have employed prints and graphics to build community, engage with social concerns, and interrogate shifting notions of political and cultural identity over time.


Artists in the first rotation include: Celia Alvarez Muñoz (United States, b. 1937), Alfredo Arreguín (United States, 1935–2023), Samuel Baray (United States, b. 1938), Candace Briceño (United States, b. 1971), Rolando Briseño (United States, b.1952), Vibiana Chamberlin (United States, b. 1942), Sam Coronado (United States, 1946–2013), Margarita “Mita” Cuarón (United States, b. 1952), Gaspar Enriquez (United States, b. 1942), Dolores Guerrero-Cruz (United States, b. 1948), Ester Hernández (United States, b. 1944), Yolanda Lopez (United States, 1942–2021), César Martinez (United States, b. 1944), Salvador Roberto Torres (United States, b. 1936), D. Rose, Annette Maria Sexton-Ruiz (United States, b. 1958), Patssi Valdez (United States, b. 1951) and Larry Yáñez (United States, b. 1949).


“Chicano/a/x Prints and Graphics: Selections from the Hispanic Research Center’s Collection, 1980–2010” is organized by ASUAM Senior Curator Alana Hernandez and ASUAM Curator Brittany Corrales and is made possible by funding provided by the Evelyn Smith Exhibition Fund. Additional funding is provided by ASU’s Hispanic Research Center and The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. The exhibition is presented in collaboration with a Community of Practice composed of Carla Chavarria, Community Building Director, Iconico, and Carla León Celaya, PhD candidate in the Spanish Department at the School of International Letters and Cultures, ASU.
