This week on Life Along the Streetcar, we dive into the silver-lined world of Eric Buckley, founder of ENB Jewelry, whose handcrafted pieces are inspired by Tucson’s vibrant art culture and enriched by century-old design traditions.
From cutting rough turquoise like a loaf of bread to using 1800s-era impression dies, Eric walks us through his fascinating process, his family’s artistic roots, and the cultural significance of the Arizona bolo tie. You’ll also get the inside scoop on where to find his work this holiday season.

Opa in the Old Pueblo: A Downtown Revival of Tucson’s Greek Festival
After a five-year hiatus, the Tucson Greek Festival is back, and it's bringing the spirit of Greece straight to the heart of Downtown! In this episode, we sit down with Peter Anadranistakis, one of the driving forces behind the festival’s return, to explore how this beloved tradition is being reimagined for a new generation and a new location.
Hosted by Tom Heath, this lively conversation covers:
- Why the festival left Fort Lowell and how it found a new home on Congress Street
- The cultural energy and community spirit behind the event
- What to expect from this year’s lineup of food, music, and interactive installations (don’t miss the YiaYia House!)
- The vision for Tucson as a future center of Hellenism in North America
This episode is full of “kefi”, that unmistakable zest for life, and showcases the kind of local storytelling you only get on Life Along the Streetcar.
