Vesterheim gives special thank you to the many companies who helped bring Vesterheim Commons to fruition! Their dedication, expertise, and hard work are evident in the beautiful structure and details.
With 7,600 square feet spread across three levels and almost an acre of surrounding landscaped patio, this building project physically links the past and the future, connects the museum collection to the Folk Art School, and enriches the Vesterheim visitor experience for those coming to Decorah or participating digitally through a new video and photography production studio.
