The Summer of the Arts Program kicks it up a notch this weekend with 3 full days of great family fun with Bank of the West’s Sand In the City. The fun starts on Friday morning at 9 a.m. when ten teams begin building their sand sculptures along Iowa Ave, Iowa City for the sand sculpting competition. Judging is at 4.00pm. Fingers crossed it stays dry…
Don’t think for a second the fun stops there though. That’s just the beginning. There’s also the Kid’s Sand Pit, and FUN Zone, Artist Booths and live music on the Iowa City Saab Main Stage. And to top it off you can feast on culinary delights on Culinary Row.
