ROCCO BUDA ART RESOURCE CENTER. Waiting for the establishment of an arts center in Dubuque, Ruth NASH and Russell NASH purchased the other half of their duplex on Loras Blvd. after the death of Rocco BUDA and turned it into the Rocco Buda Art Resource Center. Groups using the Center could use a computer, copier, and other office equipment, but it was not open to the public. (1)

Located at 434 Loras Blvd., the Center opened on February 1, 1998 and was already being used by the DUBUQUE COUNTY FINE ARTS SOCIETY, Iowa Composers Forum, DUBUQUEFEST/VERY SPECIAL ARTS, and a free-lance fundraising consultant. (2)
