First Round - October 2025

You’re invited to Downtown Iowa City’s community happy hour! This monthly gathering gives you the opportunity to meet new people, socialize, and learn about the latest happenings in the arts, business, and culture sectors of our community.

Join us in Diego Lasansky’s beautiful gallery space on October 15th. If you haven’t yet had the pleasure of viewing his studio and gallery, you’re in for a treat. Not only is this month’s venue a beautiful one, it’s also a special edition of First Round. Our hit Iowa City podcast, Downtown Dish, is coming to you live from Lasansky Corp Gallery! Join Anna and Charlie as they interview Diego Lasansky - who knows, they may even share some spicy downtown gossip!

Parking: We recommend parking in Tower Place and Parking Ramp.

This month your first round is free thanks to Tim Conroy, Broker-Partner of Blank & McCune Real Estate. Cheers!
