Hours are Friday 9am - 9pm; Saturday 10am - 8pm; and Sunday 10am - 4pm. See below for details about food, music and other activities associated with the event.
Here's basic information from the
Summer of the Arts website (SOTA):
Sand in the City, presented by Bank of the West, is a wonderful late-summer event to bring out family and friends to downtown Iowa City for a weekend of free entertainment. Giant sandboxes filled with fantastical sand sculptures will line Iowa Avenue (from Clinton Street to Linn Street) as well as our FUN Zone, Kids Sandbox, Artist booths and Culinary Row along parts of Dubuque St. and Iowa Avenue.
Sand sculptures will be designed and constructed by teams representing some of the community's most beloved businesses and local organizations. Incredible sand sculptures will come to life through the collaborative and team building efforts of our teams.
The community has an opportunity to decide their favorites by contributing "sand" dollars in the name of the team building their favorite sculpture. Event goers will also be entertained by live music and an array of adult and kid friendly activities. Our participating businesses contribute not only their time but also financial resources that allows us to raise funds that help to support the Summer of the Arts festivals and events throughout the year.
On August 20th, the regularly scheduled Friday Night Concert Series will be pre-empted for Sand in the City's live entertainment from 5 p.m. - 9 p.m. on Iowa Avenue.
