Welcome
to the Annual Manual for the Arts.
In years past, the River Cities' Reader has published a music guide each summer. We've expanded our vision this year with this inaugural Annual Manual for the Arts.
The impetus behind the Annual Manual for the Arts is that there has been no single resource for the arts in the Quad Cities, whether you're a consumer of the arts, one of their practitioners, or someone who wants to become one of their practitioners.
The goal is to provide basic information - some starting points - for fans of the arts, artists, and students of the arts. Want to know who offers dance classes? Want to know where to see art exhibits, or theatre? Want to know what venues present live music, and where they're located? All that information is in here, along with Web addresses and contact information.
As with all endeavors this large, there are likely to be omissions and errors. If you find one, please send an e-mail to (jeff@rcreader.com) with the subject line of "Annual Manual" and the correct information in the body of the e-mail. Also let us know what information you think should be included in next year's Annual Manual for the Arts.
