Reiki Attunements in Iowa City, Iowa
Iowa City is a literary college town on the Iowa River, Iowa's first state capital, and home to the University of Iowa and its world-famous Iowa Writers' Workshop.
In 2008 it became the first U.S. city, and third in the world, named a UNESCO City of Literature. Its identity blends bronze-lettered sidewalks honoring authors, black-and-gold Hawkeye football, and one of the country's best academic medical centers. In 1922 the university became the first in the U.S. to accept creative work as theses, leading to the founding of the Iowa Writers' Workshop in 1936, the nation's first creative-writing graduate program. Created by a territorial legislative act on January 21, 1839, to serve as the seat of government. Served as Iowa's third territorial capital from 1841 to 1846 and its first state capital from 1846 until 1857, when the capital moved to Des Moines. The downtown Literary Walk, a series of bronze sidewalk panels celebrating writers connected to Iowa. The pedestrian mall (Ped Mall) downtown and the Black Angel monument in Oakland Cemetery.

The Iowa Writers' Workshop and related programs have produced writers who have won more than 40 Pulitzer Prizes; alumni and residents include Flannery O'Connor, John Irving, Kurt Vonnegut, and Marilynne Robinson.
