DUBUQUE, Iowa - An ArchiTREK tour of the University of Dubuque Heritage Center will begin at 4:00 p.m. Tuesday, March 14, 2023, at the center's main entrance.

Free and open to the public, the tour will last approximately one hour.

Heritage Center's facilities offer performance spaces, educational spaces, casual gathering spots, gallery and display areas, and more.

Heritage Works, Heritage Center, the Dubuque Museum of Art, and Straka Johnson Architects, P.C. will co-host the architecture tour.
