Grant Wood Art Festival at Stone City Green-Nissen Estate
Ice wagons once used as dormitories by Grant Wood’s Cedar Rapids art students line the Green-Nissen Estate during the 1978 Grant Wood Art Festival in Stone City. The event June 9–10 features juried art, crafts, live music, and activities, centered around the historic 1880s stone barn built by J. A. Green. The festival fondly recalls Wood and contemporaries as Cedar Rapids and Iowa City artists showcase works and related performances.
