Historic Event Venue

Located in the heart of Iowa City, Old Brick was built in 1856 and was originally used as North Presbyterian Church. It is one of the few surviving local structures dating from the Civil War or earlier. In 1973 Old Brick was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. Old Brick has been fully remodeled and is the perfect venue to host your wedding, private party, or community event.
