The Arts at EVPL, sponsored by the Evansville Vanderburgh Public Library Foundation, reflects the library’s commitment to cultivating curiosity by creating wonder. EVPL supports life-long learning and strengthening our community through experiences that demonstrate how the arts enrich our lives. Through The Arts at EVPL series, we bring together artists, performers, authors, and chefs to inspire, share dialogue, and create with you at the library.
In the Stacks
In the Stacks is an evening of exclusive arts experiences at EVPL Central. The night will feature the Regional Art Awards, a one-night-only art exhibit, musical performances, and a silent auction featuring the arts.
We will be offering a heavy selection of food stations and hors d’oeuvres from Just Rennie’s. All attendees will receive two drink tickets and a gift bag.
