Week Calendar

Join us at the West Des Moines Public Library for English with Friends, a welcoming and informal conversation program.

This in-person group is open to aspiring authors of all experience levels. Each participant brings an approximately 1500-word excerpt of their work-in-progress to read aloud.

Poor farms were residential institutions, often operated by counties, that provided basic social services and housing for the poor, disabled, and elderly during the 19th and early 20th centuries.

Are you looking for a few Silver Cord, Community Service, or other volunteer hours? The Library is looking for volunteers to help with a monthly group service project. We will perform a variety of tasks.
