Paul Anater has taken the house to a new place. Using Googles's SketchUp and images he found on-line (all of which look very familiar), he created a 3D model of the house, which can now be seen on Google Earth! There are a series of posts to his blog called Kitchen and Residential Design about this project. The end result was a presentation at a trade show in Chicago, for which he digitally renovated the house with a new kitchen!

The Center feilds request to go inside the house every day, and now those of you who have desired to do so will soon have two digital opportunities. Tonight, Matt from KTVO presents a feature story with a look inside the house. The main story will be on the 10 o'clock news, with a sneak peak at 5 and 6.
The second opportunity comes from an Iowa photographer...but I'll save that story for later.
Upcoming events:
- Friday, May 28 - New Grant Wood Exhibit Opening at the American Gothic House Center
- Friday-Sunday, June 11-13 - Gothic Days
- American Gothic House Art Contest
- 5K Walk / Run
- Bike Ride
- and much more!
