Event Description
55+ Our Great State Fair: In anticipation of the Iowa State Fair, August 8-18, come watch this fascinating PBS documentary about the history and lore behind our great state fair. Our Great State Fair explores the history of Iowa’s biggest event - the annual showcase of our state’s best agriculture, industry, entertainment, and achievement. The story begins in 1854, as an experimental agricultural exposition in Fairfield, and continues into the 21st century as a statewide celebration in Des Moines.
Bridge to Opportunities meets at Refuge City Church, 2100 1st Ave. NE, Cedar Rapids, directly across from Cottage Grove Place and Cottage Grove Ave. (This is the former Four Oaks building.) Parking and entrance, including handicap ramp are at the back of the building.
