If you’ve got some time to spend at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX), be sure to spend some of that time touring the current exhibits offered by the airport museum.

In Terminal 2, and exhibit titled Laughing Matters: Arizona Humor From Tohono Chul Park, Tucson is on view in the security checkpoint entry area.

Arizona artists, in a variety of media, express what they think is funny about our region — from the whimsical to the satirical, the silly to the absurd. Artists explore the comical side of Arizona life in artwork that may lampoon the state’s landmarks, unusual animals, or the myth and reality of the Wild West.

In Terminal 3,  Alysa Bennett’s drawings and sculpture of horses are on display, along with collected craft items and artwork by Southwest Native Americans,  and ceramics by contemporary Arizona artists.

And in Terminal 4, you’ll find an exhibition of  photography by Jay Dusard of cowboys from the American West.

There’s more. Lots more.  So here’s a link to a complete list of what’s on view.
