Post Mail Art Projekt 2021: Show Me Mail Art is part of an ongoing mail art project by Post Art Library in Joplin, Mo.

Mail art is a highly accessible form of art that anyone can participate in. Our goal is to receive mail art from 200 Missourians, as well people from across the world. Many pieces received will be a part of the mail art exhibit, which will be inside Joplin Public Library from March 1, 2021 – January 31, 2022, and all pieces will become a part of our mail art collection. The 2021 exhibit and call for mail art is in partnership with Connect2Culture and Joplin Public Library.
Over There: Missouri and the Great War Exhibit brings together resources from archives, museums, and collections across the state to allow Missourians from many communities to learn about the state’s role in WWI in ways that they might not otherwise be able to do without traveling to another city.

Created by the Greene County Public Library, Springfield, Missouri. The exhibit, sponsored and supported by the History program at UCM, the Kirkpatrick library, and the UCM Military and Veterans Services program, will be on display in the Kirkpatrick Library on the campus of the University of Central Missouri during the normal operating hours of the library from March 1, 2021 to May 7, 2021.

In commemoration of the Missouri Bicentennial, juried Best of Missouri Hands artists Aaron Horrell and Barb Bailey will assist thousands of Missourians across the state in painting a large composite aluminum panel mural featuring Missouri state symbols, including but not limited to the State Capitol building, State flag, and St. Louis Gateway Arch.

Third Thursday is Joplin’s premiere community cultural event. From March through October, thousands of people gather on Main Street, and throughout downtown, gather on the Third Thursday of the month from 5:30pm to 8:30pm to enjoy local artisans, music, entertainment, and food.

The event is free and open to the public and is sponosored by the Downtown Joplin Alliance.

When the Mississippi River and its tributaries flooded in 1927 it was arguably the greatest natural disaster in United States history. It went on to inspire more than 20 recorded songs. Many of them were blues, gospel, and country—the genres that most appealed to flood victims in the South—and the disaster was referenced in pop music as well. Music scholar and performer David Evans will play selections from these songs and examine their themes. Most of these songs were written by Black singers, who imbued them with a perspective that has often been overlooked in more modern retellings of the flood
