The 50 foot long sculpture, entitled "Birds of a Feather," hangs from the ceiling in the baggage claim area of the Des Moines International Airport.
It is led by a painted metal gold finch with an 8 foot wingspan. The finch is trailed by over 2,000 small birds that were painted by families during the Des Moines Arts Festival
The Robert W. Mickle Neighborhood Resource Center turned an outdated 1960 era, unused kitchen space into a vibrant, fully equipped community kitchen that is now available to chefs, caterers, and food entrepeneurs who have an occasional, or reoccuring need for a commecial kitchen.
This kitchen is thought to be the largest "Shared Use" commercial kitchen in the state. Users must be trained in food safety, and certified by the Mickle Center prior to having access to the kitchen.
Winner of 8 Awards including National Preservation Honor Award
