Past Youth Art Contests
WHAT IOWA ARCHITECTURE INSPIRES YOU?
The Iowa Architectural Foundation’s mission is to inspire appreciation for architecture and design in everyone. We encourage students and citizens of all ages to learn more about the architecture they see every day.
More than 150 students around Iowa participated in the 2020 youth architecture contests, sponsored by Pella.
