How Dubuque's streets were transformed with beautiful art.
Dubuque is Iowa’s oldest and arguably most charming city. Framed by the natural beauty of the Mississippi River on one side and leafy bluffs on the other. Dubuque sits at a crossroads between its colorful past and its hopefully sanguine future. To help express this zeitgeist, Voices Productions has undertaken a public art campaign, focusing its efforts on private property, Voices Productions hopes to trigger cultural vibrancy through the democratic and transformative power of street art. Through 2017, eighteen murals have been completed.
“All vibrant communities have some degree of public art adorning their public space. Dubuque has greatly lagged in this area of creative expression. It is the intention of Voices Productions to move the needle, and get people in Dubuque involved in discussing and engaging in all forms of public art.” Sam Mulgrew
