Get in on the action along the Mississippi river this weekend with Rally on the River QC. With events ranging from bike rodeo to stunt shows, this is one rally you won't want to miss. If you prefer to pedal your own wheels, don't miss out on the 30th Annual Ride the River Sunday. A Father's Day tradition in the QC, this event celebrates the beauty of the riverfront trails.
Juneteenth continues on this week with events leading up to the all-day festival Saturday. Hear from various local and surrounding choirs tomorrow night during Gospel in the Park with a headlining performance by BET's Sundays Best runner-up, Alexis Spight. Bring the family out Saturday for the Family Festival featuring a classic car show, bounce houses, a peach cobbler eating contest, and much more.
Dads, spend some time downtown this weekend to celebrate Father's Day! Start Saturday at the Freight House Farmer's Market for Dads and Kids Day plus the Children's Festival featuring a bouncy house, balloon man, and much more. On Sunday, head to Modern Woodmen Park and cheer the River Bandits on to a win, then stick around for post-game catch with your kids.
Did you know it is Iowa Museum Week? Celebrate by checking out the many offerings and exhibitions over at the Figge Art Museum or the German American Heritage Center. On Saturday, the Figge opens a new exhibition, Thunderstorm, and on Sunday, GAHC offers FREE admission for Dads in honor of Father's Day.
Follow step-by-step instructions while creating your own piece of art in a relaxed environment at Re-Cre8 Studios now open in the Mississippi Plaza! Spend a night releasing your creative side with a drink and some friends. Create a "Sand and Art" painting tomorrow, a "Whimsical Dandelion" painting Tuesday, or a painting of "Patriotic Flip Flops" on Wednesday. Like them on Facebook to browse their class schedule.
Celebrate local and natural foods, health and fitness, community groups and environmental stewardship Saturday at the 8th Annual Healthy Living Fair. Presented by Radish Magazine, this fair includes fitness demonstrations throughout the day, a Pet of the Year contest, music, and a multitude of vendors offering healthy goods and services. Three cheers for good health!
