Every home needs art and everybody deserves to be inspired by art! At this month’s home shows in Des Moines and Ames, Silent Rivers will be there to inspire you with our “art of building”.
Des Moines Arts Festival will display art in our booth where you can enter to win a VIP package to this summer’s award-winning Festival… and even win a signed and numbered Chris Vance collector’s poster!

In addition to the Des Moines Arts Festival VIP package giveaway, you can enter the drawing for this collector’s edition poster by beloved Des Moines artist Chris Vance!
Signed, numbered and framed, this poster was so popular it’s no longer available for purchase.
Every summer, Des Moines Arts Festival commissions an artist to create a commemorative poster. These highly valued works of art often sell out. This 2017 poster by Chris Vance celebrates his downtown mural on the Ford Garland building completed the same year, which was also the 20th anniversary of the Des Moines Arts Festival.
Making this poster even more desirable, it features a raised relief.
