Ratings and Reviews
Showcases Des Moines Sculpture Scene!
This app is really useful. If I'm out on a walk or bike ride around downtown Des Moines and want to know more about a piece of sculpture, this app has all the info I need.
A few weeks ago I was showing some out of town friends around and quickly went to this app to see who the artist was as my friend thought a similar piece was in downtown Dallas, Texas. This app had all the info we needed.
Great App!!!!
Beautiful app with lots of information about local public art in Des Moines, Iowa. The interface is very user friendly and the aesthetic is simple and elegant. This app is a MUST have for any (public) art fan and/or Des Moines resident
Great guide to DM art!
Very handy for checking out art when you are on the go.
