Joplin Public Library's Winter Reading Challenge for Adults is perfect for cold days indoors, getting a jump start on New Year's Resolutions, or simply enjoying books!

Join us at the library for an informational fair highlighting Black history and culture in our area!

Sunday the 9th might be busy with your Super Bowl Party, so join us Saturday the 8th for our Superb Owl Party!

Get inspired and join us to paint tiny masterpieces on tiny canvases! This is a self-guided paint night where we provide paint supplies and canvases and you create whatever you'd like! Limit 1 canvas per person. 

Take a step back in time with our Old Hollywood Movie Night! We'll be showing the classic 1949 movie White Heat.
