Step back in time for a week-long celebration of Gilbert’s western heritage and a salute to the community spirit that has thrived for more than a half a century. Contestants come from all over the country to participate in Jackpot Roping, Barrel Racing and the Budweiser IPRA Rodeo. In addition to Rodeo Park, Gilbert Days offers an old-town parade and carnival, complete with rides, games, prizes, and an abundance of mouth-watering concession stands.

Libraries aren't just about books. If you're an art lover, you can look forward to seeing a new mural every month at Paradise Valley Community College Library. These reproductions of classic paintings are created by art students at the college.
