July means... Sidewalk Sales!

Time to get the calendar out. Sidewalk sales start this Thursday, Friday & Saturday, July 15-17 at many locations in downtown Iowa City. It's the biggest sale of the year and your favorite time to find bargains at Prairie Lights Books, Active Endeavors, and many more of your local favorite stores. Iowa Artisans Gallery also sells artist "seconds" on this day. These are works that look quite wonderful to shoppers but may not quite meet the artists' high standards and are usually priced about 50% off of their customary prices. The Gallery will also do some housecleaning on gallery-owned items.

On Sunday, look for the Iowa City Book Festival as it expands into downtown Iowa City with its A Day in the City of Literature. We'll post about this exciting event tomorrow.
