Intern Blog - An Easter Weekend Getaway

On Easter weekend, Communications Specialist Amelia took me on a trip to Des Moines and Iowa City, to visit her sister, Elise! It was a weekend of many American “firsts” and even though I enjoy being in Elk Horn most of the time, it was fun to have a few days in the city.

I had my first gigantic soda (or “pop”) for the car ride, and I’ve got to admit that it was very enjoyable. It was also my first trip to the Costco food court, where I had a delicious slice of pepperoni pizza AND ice cream. Living in Kolding, which is known as “Slicetown” because of the many pizzerias, I can say with great confidence that the ones in Costco are very good.

As museum people, we obviously had to check out a few museums in Iowa City, and while Amelia showed me around her old campus, we had fun visiting the new Stanley Museum of Art and the University of Iowa Museum of Natural History. The taxidermy racoons are still the closest I have been to seeing a racoon in daylight, but I have not given up yet! I also had to say hello to Rusty (the big, prehistorical sloth), who apparently is a great celebrity at the University of Iowa and I was not disappointed by his size and, from what I can tell, amazing personality.

We DID also get to see some live animals, when Amelia and Elise took me to the Iowa Raptor Project at Lake MacBride. Here I got to see a bunch of exciting owls and hawks, and even a bald eagle. The Iowa Raptor Project is run by the University of Iowa and takes care of 17 unreleasable birds of prey historically found in Iowa. No trip to the lake without getting your feet wet, so next up we hiked to a waterfall, that we of course, also had to cross for the real waterfall-hiking-experience. It was a great success.

I have also been very interested in visiting thrift stores over here, as I am a frequent thrifter back in Denmark, and luckily, Amelia and Elise were up for thrifting, too. We found some fun things, and I’ll definitely take recommendations on fun thrift stores in the area!

Amelia also took me to the beginning of the Mormon trail in Iowa City. This is where the train tracks ended and the Mormons from countries such as Denmark would assemble handcarts for the 1300-mile-long walk to “Zion” in Utah. As we currently have an exhibition at the museum about the first wave of Danish immigrants, where many were Mormon converts, seeing where many began their long journey and how some ended up in towns such as Elk Horn was very interesting. The exhibition will be on display until May 4 2023, so there’s still time to check it out!

Lastly, we had to watch some movies. I was met with confusion by some of my dear colleagues, when I mentioned that I have never watched The Princess Bride, so that, of course, had to change. A weekend of movies such as A League of Their Own, the original Mathilda movie, 16 Candles, The Lorax, John Tucker Must Die AND Barbie in Princess and the Pauper followed, and I thoroughly enjoyed all of them. I am excited to see what other movies I have missed from my side of the pond.

I am so happy that I got to spend such a fun weekend in good company! The next few weeks will special, too. I’m heading to Denmark for my sister’s confirmation, and then to Seattle for one of our 40th anniversary events – so check back soon for more intern adventures!

BONUS INFO: I tried fried pickles. They were great!

Gratitude to Impostor Lit for publishing my poem “Poem notes on the painting The Age of Noise, by Robert Cocke, Or, Monsters on the Sidelines.” It came out in their December issue that focused on ekphrastic poetry. I was really inspired by this painting that was part of a small but special surrealism show at @cr_museum_of_art last spring! Showed up there on a chilly, rainy day with @knbrkr0 and bummed around. Pretty great. Don’t miss Write at the Stanley @uistanleymuseum which is coming up Sunday, 1/22 at 3 pm. Come write with us!@iowacitypoetry #poetry #poetrycommunity #iowacity #art #ekphrasticpoetry #ekphrasis #writing #writingcommunity #joinus #poetsofinstagram #poetsofig #artwork #inspiration #becreative #becreativeeveryday #museums #museumwriting #prompts #talkaboutit #poetryprompts #surrealist #color #paintings #write #iowacitypoetry #writeon #writingprompts #allarewelcome https://www.instagram.com/p/CnZwTORO2tr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

-The applicant must be a homeless individual or at risk of homelessness in Iowa

-Applicants must have a disability as defined by the ADA in order to qualify.

-The applicant must be eligible for public assistance through the Department of Human Services (DHS)

FURTHER MORE

One of the main services offered by the Iowa Finance Authority are Housing First programs in which individuals who have experienced homelessness are provided with a permanent housing solution.

The goal of these programs is to get people off the street and into long-term housing quickly, while maintaining a focus on individualized support needed to achieve sustainable independence.

One program offered by the Iowa Finance Authority is Triple H or Housing First-Homeownership, which provides significant financial incentives for those who own homes with no mortgage and have income less than 50% of the median income, as well as down payment assistance.

While Iowa’s Housing First program is focuse-d on transitioning people from homelessness to homeownership, the program also benefits those who are still homeless by providing a long-term solution to address their housing needs.

The Triple H program provides significant financial incentives for those who own homes with no mortgage and have income less than 50% of the median income, as well as down payment assistance. This creates an affordability gap between those who can afford to buy homes and the people who cannot. ”Homeowners with incomes above $100,000 are eligible for an interest-free second mortgage if they have a down payment of at least 20%.

Took myself to the one #iowacitybookfestival event I could make it to this year - Angie Cruz’s reading for How Not to Drown in a Glass of Water! (Great title, right?) My friend @lupita.reads has been yelling (the fun, excited kind of yelling 😜) at all of us about this book for a while now so I’m glad I’m taking her very good suggestion. (And I had to get a selfie to show her, of course, hahaha) Professor Ari Ariel (Director of International Studies) - led a great discussion after Angie read from the beginning of her book, which was fantastic. Everyone should go pick this up 💛🧡 #books #bookevents #livefromprairielights #iowacity https://www.instagram.com/p/CjZI-GFrwAG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I’m a bit busy right now, so I’m taking the foot off the art and music accelerator. The scenery may change a bit for a while. Time to gather some “source material” for the future.
