There are so many retro neon signs in this place. We did a scavenger hunt. Was lot of fun. If you are looking for something different to do and experience this is it. You will not be disappointed

Very interesting items in this place, but the place is kind of small.

We had a great time walking through history of sign making, as well as, an amazing demonstration on making neon signs. They mentioned possibility introducing classes on how to create neon signs in the winter. It’s a good place for families too!

This place is a great find! There were many informative signs throughout describing the history of various lighting options (LED, neon, etc.) and/or the history of famous road signs around Tucson. Jude, the owner, was working on a piece in the back as we toured around, and he spent twenty minutes or so explaining some concepts to us in greater depth. Really fascinating! Lots of great items in the gift shop too, including nice jewelry and art work.

Very fun visit! So glad to see the history of signs and sign making appreciated and preserved. Great place to bring kids for the colorful exhibits and a few hands on activities.

This is a really neat place, especially if youre dazzled by colors, lights, and fonts. Ignite preserves historic neon signs from around Tucson along with some modern-day signs that were otherwise set for destruction. There are a lot of interactive displays as well.If youve ever visited the Neon Boneyard in Vegas, you know many of those signs no longer light up. At Ignite, most of the signs are in working order and are lit up.The majority of the museum is indoors, but there is an outdoor portion with more signs on display.The owners are very friendly and knowledgeable. If you get the opportunity to talk with them, theyll share a lot about the art of sign making, neon-tube bending, etc.Definitely recommend this experience.

Had an awesome time checking this place out and learning a bit about the process of creating and restoring neon signs from Jude, the owner. Definitely worth a trip down from Phoenix or a stop if youre swinging through Tucson. I wish this place the best!

Employee was friendly, helpful & knowledgeable about US & world sign history. It was fun!

Ignite is fascinating, a trip down memory lane and just plain fun! Its fun to play with the interactive signs in every area of the museum. The authentic neon signs that I remember from growing up in the 60s and beyond are carefully and faithfully re-ignited and displayed in all their glory. Where else can you see neon glass being shaped right in front of you? The gift shop alone is worth visiting regularly. Ignite is a Tucson gem that shines brightly.

If visiting Tucson, make sure to include a stop at the Ignite Sign Art Museum to see an amazing collection of all types of signs and the history of sign advertising. There are interactive displays too so this is a great family stop.

It was a cool place. People were super nice and we got a class on neon signs!

You can spend several hours here learning about Tucson history and enjoying the trip down memory lane through the beautiful and unique signs and fascinating related memorabilia. We certainly did! Its easy to find, just a block or two off a major road, in an area of small industrial businesses. Plenty of parking on site. Youll find a clean, organized warehouse full of treasures and a hostess who is a font of information. We even were able to view a demonstration of neon glass making -- incredible precision and art! Cool gift shop, too. We combined our visit ti Ignite with a stroll around the warehouse district (about a mile away--drive) and its art galleries. A nice afternoon of touristing! Were glad we stopped.

Unique and interesting! Really friendly folks who own this museum, too. Call ahead to find out when there will be a free demonstration on how neon glass tubes are heated and formed; its really interesting and enjoyable!

We had so much fun here! We completed the scavenger hunts, made signs with stamps and tried the sign printing machine. Everything was so cool! Well definitely be back!

Nice place to visitThe owners are awsome and even if busy both will take the time to talk to you about the signs and history of signs,neon,and tucson

Totally worth tourist and Tucsonans’ attention alike. Monica and her husband have done a great job at bringing a bit of Tucson culture to life in a way you’ve probably never thought of. The iconography of this artful city is wonderfully captured in a way that is memorable and interactive. Plus, it’s a great spot for events!

VERY informative, VERY interesting. A husband and wife decided that Tucson needed a Neon Sign museum, so they made it happen. They work hard every day to bring this dream to reality, and their work shows. You can learn everything there is to know about all kinds of signs (including neon signs), and about the history of signs in Tucson. This is a one-of-a-kind place and a treasured jewel. HIGHLY recommended to ALL visitors to Tucson.

Super nice staff! Loved it had so much fun! Would come again and again had stuff for everyone! Made my day!

Owned by a signmaker and family who are passionate about the trade. All kinds of activities and vintage neon signs- great gift shop! A good visit for a cuople of hours.

If youre a local, youll find signs or reproductions of signs that will bring back memories–and by supporting the museum youll also be supporting the preservation of Tucsons remaining examples of twentieth-century sign art, both neon and non, as the museums owners are very involved in that project. Whether a local or a visitor, youll learn about the history of sign art from painted through electric-bulb, neon, and LED, and come away with more appreciation of the retail landscape you see every day. The museum is pitched for an all-ages audience, with hands-on displays and educational activities that older kids can try, and lots of things that blink and make noise and move to interest the littlest ones.

A treasure of beautiful and vintage signage. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. We were delighted and impressed beyond our expectations. The unique gift shop features items you won’t find anywhere else.

Its an awesome interactive museum. The worker we met was very nice and informed us on the signs. I would recommend coming here if youre ever in Tucson.

A good place to explore Tucsons historyWell worth the money!

Fun, creative display of signs highlighting both the Americana sign history and local Tucson signs. Owner super friendly, knowledgeable and happy to share that knowledge

Amazing fun displays and very informative.Everything is lit up and its a visual feast!!Fun for Adults and Kids!!

This museum is a Tucson gem. A place for the family to study 20th century history through commercial art. I enjoyed the beautiful neon collection. Looked like a labor of love.

An unusual and interesting museum with a cute gift shop. The large room looks like a great place for an event.

Would definitely recommend to anyone that loves classic neon signs or 1950s kitsch. The preservation of actual signage is a labor of love by volunteers and there are replicas of some of Tucsons most historic signs. There are also interactive displays and good descriptions of each item seen.

Awesome place. Great signs. Brings back old memories

I like signs, so this is a cool museum. A little pricey for the size, but if you like Americana its worth it

Awesome place to have a party

They are still in the process building the museum. We were impressed with what they have so far and impressed with their knowledge. It was well worth the money it cost.

A hidden gem in Tucson. Great for the whole family.

I did not expect to have so much fun here and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Excellent museum are very friendly and helpful and theyve got a collection of signs that can blow you away

It was fun and informative! People were awesome!

Too expensive for what you get

Very cool place!

Fun, eclectic sign museum.

Informative, friendly staff
