Join the Louis and Clark Interpretive Center in Sioux City for the presentation “Grant Wood: Prairie Rebel: by Tom Milligan.

In this 45-minute, one-man show, Grant Wood chats with the audience as if talking to an old friend across the backyard fence, or maybe at his home at Five Turner Alley in Cedar Rapids. He tells us about his life and how he changed the art world forever with his work. It is the man behind American Gothic that we hear and see, and the story of how he took the moments, the memories and the people of our state to show the whole world the specialness of this Iowa. After the presentation, the audience is encouraged to ask questions about Grant Wood and his life.

This event is part of the center’s Sunday Series, supported in part by a Humanities Iowa Mini Grant.
