Live the Arts in Iowa
Be a part of Live the Arts in Iowa, a campaign to connect and promote the arts across our state!
The arts are alive in Iowa, there’s no doubt about it, but we have so often heard that a consistent message and look would unite all these efforts and really highlight what Iowa has to offer in the arts.
So after a little help from some of you – we came up with Live the Arts in Iowa!
Lieutenant Governor Patty Judge has given us her support. We are honored to have such a strong ally, and we know how much more there is to see and do in Iowa – so let’s get the word out!
Read her letter here.
There are wonderfully rich programs, projects, performances, exhibits, school programs happening every day and Live the Arts in Iowa can be a spotlight to shine on them. Use the Live the Arts in Iowa logo and slogan at your events, on your brochures, on your website, to show that what you do is part of the big arts picture in Iowa. We can’t wait to see it popping up everywhere!
