American Gothic House a Top 10 Place to Travel


This week I found out the American Gothic House is featured in Lonely Planet’s “Best in Travel 2012” book! After learning of this, I quickly obtained an iBook copy as I was too impatient to wait for the bookstore to open the next day. I found that we had made the list of “Top 10 Places to Put Yourself in the Picture”. The section reads. “Are they really pretty as a picture? Walk into the world’s most famous works of art”. Top destinations were in Denmark, France, Spain, French Polyneisa…and Iowa! I was ecstatic to say the least!

Looking for an easy and FREE way to support the American Gothic House Center? The American Gothic House Center is now a member of www.ShopForMuseums.com. This is a free program where you can make purchases at hundreds of online stores and a percentage of the proceeds (which varies depending on the company) go to the American Gothic House Center. No need to register, (but you can if you would like to track your donation) just simply click on American Gothic House Center under the list of organizations, and then find the store you would like to shop. You are not charged any more for your purchase by going through this site, but it generates a donation for the Center! As always, we appreciate your support!
