Brief Description

The City of Elkader is a byway community within the River Bluffs Scenic Byway Corridor. One of the byway’s priorities is development and improvement of art and cultural resources. To act on this priority, a grant was acquired to help develop proposals for and the eventual funding of place-based public art. The Elkader Art Advisory Committee will work with the Byways of Iowa Foundation and Northeast Iowa RC&D to fund the materials and artist fees associated with the project through grants, fundraising efforts, donations, etc.
