The Downtown District is looking for Tree Huggers

The Iowa City Downtown District is looking for Tree Huggers for the 2013 Tree Hugger Project.

The project is composed of volunteers who knit sweaters for trees in downtown Iowa City as a part of a public-art project to bring color to downtown. The project launched last winter.

Project officials are looking for volunteers to prepare yarn and bags for the 135 trees downtown.

Those who are interested should email [email protected].
