| Hello! | |
 Ring in the new year downtown! Celebrate NYE at Hotel Blackhawk and dance the night away with a hosted bar, hors d'oeuvers, live music by Cosmic, and a champagne toast at midnight! You can even get a package deal to stay the night, too. Do you love the Grateful Dead? How about some upbeat blues tunes you can dance to? Head to the River Music Experience for an awesome NYE Bash with The Candymakers and The Greatest Story Ever Told! Whether you're there for the Dead tunes or the R&B, funk, and soul of the Candymakers, we're certain you'll have a blast.
Take part in a docent-guided tour of the exhibition Quilts: Masterworks from the American Folk Art Museum at the Figge Art Museum this Sunday. Converse about the art while trained docents answer any questions you may have. Don't forget to check out the many other current exhibitions like the 2012 College Invitational or the Portrait of Maquoketa: The Dimensional View, while you still have the chance!
Of course, many of our bars and restaurants will be featuring a variety of New Year's Eve parties and specials throughout downtown, too. Have you downloaded our App yet to have this handy list on the go? Download our Android App or our iPhone App today!
Have a safe and happy New Year!
See you downtown!
