The weather outside is frightful…ly cold, and it isn’t much warmer in the Temple of Doom, either, but here we are! 🥶

Go see Anamosa’s Parade of Lights, then come by for one last round of 2024 scares TONIGHT. See you soon!

The Temple of Doom is offering a frightening new spectacle this holiday season:

THE FRIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS!

Come see the dark underbelly of the North Pole and some of your favorite festive characters.

The Fright Before Christmas will be open on Saturday, November 30th from 6pm-9pm. It will be ONE NIGHT ONLY and will take place immediately following the Anamosa Chamber's Lighted Parade.

And because we want to encourage you to shop all of the great small businesses in Anamosa on Small Business Saturday, we are opening our doors for only $5 per person!

Remember: Santa knows who is naughty and nice, so you'd better make sure to swing by the Fright Before Christmas this Saturday night!

👻 Come kick off spooky season with us TONIGHT!! See you there!

(How cool is this new design?! Big thanks to board member Isabelle for always coming through with the graphics!)

❗️❗️Are you ready?! We open tomorrow evening!

Come, get spooked, and know it’s for a cause! Temple of Doom is designed, built, and “haunted” entirely by volunteers. We couldn’t do this without them! ALL Temple of Doom proceeds help us inch closer to our goal of renovating our building. See you there!

🆘! WE NEED NEWSPAPER ASAP! Temple of Doom build is well under way, but Arts Court could really use more newspaper or even brown packing paper to finish a project! Drop off at the back door (parking lot side of the building by the alley) at 107 N Garnavillo St in Anamosa any time today or tomorrow! 🆘

09/02/2024

Just two hours to go! Come join the fun on N Garnavillo in Anamosa, and be sure to enter the 50/50 raffle while you’re here!

Today’s the day! We can’t wait to see you all there!

Let’s try this again- now, with NO city fee requirement! (Arts Court still asks for a $30 vendor fee to help make this fundraiser a success.) We are so grateful to our city administrator for meeting with us to help clear up some confusion!

We’re bringing back our Dinner on the Bridge fundraising event! Join us for a relaxing evening and upscale dinner with live instrumental music on the historic Hale Bridge overlooking the Wapsipinicon River in Anamosa on Friday, June 14th.

Social hour begins at 6:30, followed by dinner catered by Terrace Café with wine from Lubben Vineyards & Wines. Menu options include beef or salmon. Tickets are $65 each ($520 per table of eight) and are available at Anamosa’s banks and Thou Art Gallery. For more information please contact KC at 319-821-1424 or email [email protected].
