About Des Moines Art Center

The Des Moines Art Center is a workmanship gallery with a broad gathering of artworks, design, present day craftsmanship and blended media. It was set up in 1948 in Des Moines, Iowa. The Art Center follows its foundations to 1916, when the Des Moines Association of Fine Arts built up exhibition space at the Public Library of Des Moines on the banks of the Des Moines River downtown. A few presentations were demonstrated every year, and gems were intermittently obtained for the affiliation's perpetual accumulation.

In 1938, the DMAF moved their accumulation to an expanding on Walnut Street. Planning for a lasting building started in 1943 after a sizeable gift from the trust of James E. Edmundson. In 1945, DMAF developed into the Des Moines Art Center. A site along Grand Avenue in the city's Greenwood Park was assigned as the favored area. Development started in 1945; the exhibition hall itself opened in 1948, with extra wings built in 1968 and 1985. In 2009, the Art Center extended its central goal to work the Pappajohn Sculpture Park, situated in Western Gateway Park downtown.Tourists come here from all over the world with their family members and friends to visit this place.
