The Cultural District in Fairfield, Iowa, has a high concentration of cultural facilities in a mixed-use, compact area of the city. Hundreds of working artists and many art galleries, dance studios, and a variety of restaurants all contribute to cultural and economic development.
In the heart of the Fairfield Cultural District is Central Park, the town square.
Central Park is host to a variety of events throughout the year, including the Fairfield Municipal Band weekly summer concerts, the Live on the Square Concert Series, an annual five-day Power Wagon Rally, two annual weekend Classic Car Shows, Kids Day Parade, and many other public rallies and large gatherings.
Downtown Fairfield, anchored by Central Park, acts as a "stage set" with its buildings as the backdrop. Young and old alike enjoy a near constant hubbub of activity, which serves to make the city alive, pulsing to the beat of its culture.
