Head to Iowa City on May 2-3 for a party all around downtown. The city’s artists and other creative folks will kick off the Beyond Fashion Festival on Friday night with a happy hour, design showcase, comedy show, DJ sets, slam poetry and live music at multiple venues.

The festival’s activities continue bright and early Saturday morning, with yoga and a guest lecture at the Graduate Hotel, and a vendor market pop up at the Hotel Chauncey. In the afternoon, sharpen your pencils for a series of lectures and panel discussions, plus a screening of “The Wright House,” about an Iowa-based fashion house. It all culminates in a multitude of fashion shows featuring local, regional and national designers. Buy an all-access pass to take part and attend as many of the events as you want.
