Honk if You Love Higley!
Welcome to the the Make Higley Historic! blogspot! Your definitive source of Higley happenings - past, present and future.
Anyone who knows Higley is aware that its boundaries and residents have been quite elusive the last 100 years. This page has been created to bring together fellow Higleans, Gilbillies, San Tan-ites, travelers and friends who all have something to say about the history of this unique place.
Higley needs your voice! If you are interested in authoring posts for this community blog, we'd love to hear from you and the site administrator will get you set up. Please feel free to email any photos you would like to share to makehigleyhistoric@gmail.com and we will add them to the page. And if you know of any older folks who may not be technologically savvy or speak only Spanish, let us know and we can arrange an interview so their stories are recorded as well.
We look forward to hearing from many and hope you all check in weekly for updates and new posts about our history and our efforts for recognition. Thank you kindly for all of your support in making Higley's historic value known!
Higley Center for the Perfoming Arts
On June 25th, azcentral.com's Srianthi Perera wrote an article about Higley's largest cultural resource, the Higley Center for the Performing Arts. The article notes that the center has yet to have a sold out show, so Make Higley Historic! wanted to be sure to get the word out about the Center's progress and upcoming performance schedule detailed in the text.

Tickets can be purchased for their events through their website -

We thank HUSD and the HCPA endlessly for their mission in “providing a facility in which all members of the community can participate as audience, as performers or as presenters.” We also wait patiently for their "historic" sold out show - you'll see the review here first at Make Higley Historic!

Thanks for the mention in your blog. Since the information was published in the Republic article the Higley Center has launched its own website. Please visit www.higleyarts,org for the latest information on our programs....Robert Zucker, Assistant Manager
