WELCOME TO
Bluff Strokes Art Center
Ringing in 2025
We’re excited to begin our journey offering Dubuque high-quality art education, collaborative creative spaces, and opportunities for artistic growth and professional development. Visit our programming page to learn more.
We continue to renovate our new historic location at 1201 Locust Street. We are also busy building our communications and marketing campaign.
Grant Sucess
We won a grant! A 2025 series of intensive 3-day workshops will be partially supported by the National Endowment for the Arts and the Iowa Arts Council, which exists within the Iowa Economic Development Authority. See those workshops on our programming page to register for workshops by local professional artists: Louise Kames, Erin E. Kono, and Jessie Rebik.
Our mission gives you a great peek into what we are becoming. We also want to hear from our visitors.
