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.

Event Details

At its core, The Democracy Wall Project provides an outlet for students and community members to interact and engage in civil discourse on topics that can be difficult to talk about.  In doing so, participants can express their ideas and opinions in a valued and respectful environment demonstrating the transformative nature libraries have within their communities.  (General Information - Democracy Wall Project - SMCC Library at South Mountain Community College (southmountaincc.edu)

Each month we will post a question and we hope you will share your thoughts with us. There will be a few ground rules (posted near the board in the west foyer), only to make sure that the dialogue always remains kind and respectful.  We look forward to your participation!

Our first question will be: What is the most important thing you are learning during the pandemic?
