Living in Iowa City
Steeped in the midwestern tradition of warmth and friendliness, Iowa City offers an intimate and cozy community for Doris Duke Fellows to call "home" during their fellowship year. At the same time, Iowa City offers a myriad of opportunities for fellows to enjoy and participate in cultural and intellectual activities.
Downtown Iowa City features a beautiful brick-paved pedestrian mall lined with artisan galleries, ethnic restaurants, pubs, cafes, bookstores, and music stores. There are multiple venues to enjoy drama, art, music, and dance, in addition to recreational activities, such as biking, sailing, golfing, and cross-country skiing.
