Friends of Hauberg Civic Center Foundation is a 501c3 organization that was formed this year to support maintenance and programming at the Prairie style home that was donated to the City of Rock Island by the Hauberg children in 1956. Designed by Prairie school architect Robert C. Spencer, the home and its large garage/stable are a gem that is centrally located in Rock Island. The buildings are surrounded by 10 acres of grounds designed by Prairie school landscape designer, Jens Jensen. This landscape is undergoing restoration based on the original Jensen plans.
