This Week in Bisbee Person of the Week!

Cynthia Sequanna came to Bisbee in February 2022, intending to stay only temporarily. But, like so many others, she found a reason to stay. A native Arizonan and retired National Park Ranger of 21 years, Cynthia has called places from Prescott and the Grand Canyon to Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument home. Today, she is a multimedia fiber artist inspired by the natural and cultural landscapes at her feet. She loves Bisbee for its architecture, history, art, music, culture, and especially its people, as well as its place among the beautiful Sky Islands, where she can spend time birding and exploring the natural world.
