Adventure Pass Changes in 2025

Due to software issues affecting all libraries using the service, the Des Moines Public Library’s Iowa Adventure Pass program 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.

Program Description

Event Details

Everyone has a story worth sharing, whether you know it or not. It’s a matter of discovering what you have to say and pulling the poem out of it. Join local professional poet Kelsey Bigelow to uncover the poem within you and let the ideas take up space on the page. You may be surprised by what you can craft!

To ensure everyone can participate fully, space in this program is limited.

Kelsey Bigelow is a member of the Iowa Poetry Association and Academy of American Poets. She has led the Des Moines Poetry Workshop since February 2018. Learn more about Kelsey at her website.
