Become a fan of First Night on Facebook 2013 Schedule AnnouncedWe have finalized all but 1 artist and the schedule is complete. Visit the Schedule of Events page on the left to see who is coming and where they will be performing! The 2013 event will take place from 4:30pm-10pm ending with a firework finale. Children's activities will take place at Bloomer School from 4:30-7:00pm. First Night is excited to announce the button design winner for the 2013 event which is themed "The Spirit of Arts in Iowa." This year's button design comes from a graduate of Abraham Lincoln and student at Iowa State University, Taylor Atkinson. His design will be used to create buttons that will serve as tickets of admission for participants in the sixth Annual First Night Council Bluffs activities, which will take December 31, 2012. "With this year's theme of "The Spirit of Arts in Iowa" we felt Taylor's button captured the excitement and entertainment that happens every year at our event," said First Night Co-Chair Inky Westfall. "Art in Iowa come from all over including music, painting, dancing and we feel this his button are our event capture all those things that make Iowa a special place to live, work, and play." ![]() What the artists are saying about First Night!We had a wonderful and memorable time performing at the First Baptist Fellowship Hall on New Years Eve. Thank you very much for having us! The bottom line is--nothing could have been improved upon. We were treated very nicely and each person we talked to was friendly and very helpful. Also--we thought the Honey Creek Jazz band was a good band to share the stage with. We felt the two groups complimented each other very nicely, and we enjoyed meeting them and listening to their music. Thanks again, Bob and Kristie Black
