While you're there, peruse the new Young Artists at the Figge exhibition. This week's exhibition highlights work from students from the Muscatine Community School District. Be sure to make it to the exhibition's reception Sunday, too! Just can't get enough of weddings? Check out the new Vintage Vows & Veils exhibit opening this Sunday at the German American Heritage Center. This exhibit, which features wedding traditions at the GAHC, will continue on until May 26th. Come check out unique, vintage photos, gowns, heirlooms, and more! Enjoy writing original songs? Here's your chance to play, listen, and learn from leaders in the craft as they make music and talk about the process at River Music Experience.
