About Chandler

The city of Chandler transformed itself from a small farming community into a “High-Tech Oasis of the Silicon Desert” (the city slogan), within the space of a few years. It’s one of the fastest growing communities in the nation. A growing cultural life which includes public art and the performing arts, numerous museums, parks and recreation, and libraries have contributed to Chandler’s appealing lifestyle.

Chandler still pays tribute to the days it consisted of raising cattle, sheep and ostriches by celebrating an annual Ostrich Festival every March. There are a lot of recreational and education activities to enjoy in Chandler. Residents enjoy the different aquatic programs and the center for the arts, which has rotating 180° stages and moving walls so that three performances can be executed simultaneously.
