A special Humanities Iowa preview event of the new documentary The Barn Raisers by Emmy nominated filmmakers Kelly and Tammy Rundle of Fourth Wall Films. Program is free to the public and sponsored by Humanities Iowa. The one-hour film will begin at 2:00 p.m. followed by Q&A with the filmmakers and other film participants. The Barn Raisers tells the story of barns in the Upper Midwest by examining them through the lens of architecture. The film explores what barn styles, building methods and materials tell us about the people who built them, the life they lived and the role these "country cathedrals" played in the settling and building of the Nation.
