Phoenix Madison Square Garden: Equality in the Ring How many people know there was a Madison Square Garden right here in Arizona? It was built in 1929 as the region’s largest indoor arena. Countless local boxers and wrestlers got their big breaks at Phoenix Madison Square Garden, and Chandler’s own heavyweight contender Zora Folley was one of its star attractions. Imagine yourself ringside as historian Vincent Murray traces the 50-year arc of this legendary locale. After the program experience the exhibition “Bigger Than Boxing,” on view at Chandler Museum until February 13, 2022.
