Deb is teaching a course at Iowa State University!
Hi all,
I’m teaching a course for OLLI at Iowa State University on October 9 at 5:30 pm. My course, Cheap Downtown Placemaking Ideas, is $30.
ISU Alumni OLLI program requires a membership of $35 as well.
View the course booklet and register for the course and membership here.

Cheap Downtown Placemaking Ideas
Make your downtown a vibrant place for $100 or less. 39 placemaking ideas that fit in any (or no) budget.
The past few years took a toll on downtowns. Empty buildings look worse than ever! Downtown is still the heart of our small towns, but it doesn’t look like the welcoming community place we want it to be.
And we don’t have much budget to do anything about that.
Make your downtown a more vibrant place for $100 or less. Deb will show you how in this course. And you'll see how other towns are using these ideas.
A rapid fire list of dozens of ideas so you can find the one that makes you shout "That's it! Let's do that one!"

My first question about that membership was ‘they have to pay both, even though they could be from anywhere? Not just Iowa?’
There’s a good deal of benefit to the membership! You’ll also receive:
· A minimum of nine Members-Only Lectures during the year at no additional cost.
· A monthly electronic newsletter (or paper copy for those without email).
· Weekly emails (sent on Fridays) during course sessions with information about the following week.
· Central Iowa Symphony has provided two complimentary concert tickets per OLLI member.
· Stephens Auditorium, on campus, special offers on tickets to select shows.
· Octagon Center for the Arts reusable 10% discount off purchases of $25 or more in the Octagon Gallery shop or on Octagon class registration.
If you’re interested in having me bring a webinar to your community, either in person or virtual, send me an email to deb@saveyour.town
Thanks,
Deb
