Join Storyhouse in learning about the delicious and sometimes nefarious history of Iowa Supper Clubs from DSM author Megan Bannister on Saturday, October 2 at 6pm in Raygun’s mezzanine. We’ll be enjoying wine from our neighbors at the Purveyor in honor of quintessential midwest dining culture while Megan walks us through the fascinating history of Iowa supper clubs.
