Nestled in the heart of the Old Fort Lowell Historic District, Bolsius House is located on the edge of a mesquite bosque, near the confluence of the Rillito River and Pantano Wash.

The 1930s-1960s saw it flourish as a hub for a southwestern artist colony, creating a microcosm of the rich cultural tapestry of the Southwest.
