Adventure Pass Ending in 2025

Due to circumstances outside of our control, the Des Moines Public Library’s Iowa Adventure Pass service will no longer be available in 2025. Any reservation already made for 2025 will be honored, but we encourage anyone with a current reservation to print those passes immediately. Customers can make new reservations for passes that must be used by December 31, 2024. We hope to reintroduce the service at a later time, and we apologize for the inconvenience.

She started her calligraphy business, Ink & Oak, in 2013, and has been a teaching artist at the Des Moines Art Center since 2017. She is a member of the Chicago Calligraphy Collective and Letter Arts Alliance of the Midwest. She loves all things letters.
