Through the experience of fine art, and the subtle yet powerful language of art, we deepen our appreciation of life, raise our awareness and enrich the quality of our lives.

Iowa Contemporary Art (ICON) provides programs to raise the public's awareness of art, workshops and events to educate artists and those who appreciate art, and a venue for high-quality contemporary fine art.

ICON is a non-profit organization serving the general public, students of art and life, art patrons, and artists.

Join us as we celebrate art and life!

VISION

Our Mission Statement presents our guiding principles and our purpose for being.

Our vision for ICON is to establish a strong and robust organization that is an integral part of the cultural life of the Fairfield and Eastern Iowa art scene.

Our vision includes a broad range of art-based initiatives that will be revealed as we find the people and financial resources to manifest them.

We are a young, energetic organization with big dreams and high aspirations. We love art and deeply believe that art is important to the happiness and spiritual growth of human kind.
